Short-sighted and stupid. I presume that not all the 50 executives (GM and C together) will still work there in a year from now and then: good luck finding replacements if you pay 10% of your competitors. They will end up saving money in the short run, but the major gaps that will rise in continuancy will eventually cost more in the long run. Just 'popular' politics if you ask me; but don't :) 90 percent? Short-sighted and stupid.
