While MD's company is crumbling with just bad decision after bad decision, he's spending millions on his daughters wedding.

Absolutely ridiclious. Couldn't be more out of touch with reality and tone deaf.

If we had to vote on the worst CEO -- he'd be my pick.

Anyone saying “his money” is missing the point. Billionaires sc--wing around all day while the little people do the actual work is why the world is broken today. They’re stealing from your wages, calling it theirs, and then going off to party.

Do company founders deserve a little more for taking a risk? Sure. Become a millionaire. But a BILLION dollars can only be acquired through wage theft and anyone who doesn’t see it doesn’t realize how much money a billion dollars is.

Good for him. He’s entitled to spend his $ on anything he pleases and doesn’t owe anyone anything especially the malcontents on this site.

MD is entitled to spend his money any way he sees fit, that’s his call. But he oughta publicly own the fact that we’re all in this situation because of his poor judgement and bad execution. The stock’s tankin, we went on a hiring spree only to swing back with mass layoffs, morale’s rock bottom , AI isn’t coming to the rescue anytime soon and we’re losin ground to the competition in most areas.

He keeps listenin to Bain and nothin has gone right. JC and the other sycophants in SLT just nod along like it suits their own agenda, mostly dollar signs if you ask me.

Truth is, MD done lost his way. He needs to quit leanin on others and trust his own gut instincts on what’s right again .

Anyhoo, mazal tov on your daughters wedding Mike.

he can spend the money anyway he wants -- there is over the top though and it's fair to say that he is scr**ing people out of jobs and taking their livelyhood from them for no reason. Spending money on his bratty daughter is pretty tone deaf while his company is getting slammed and he's sc--wing people. But if some of you are that awe struck by him, that's sad and pathetic.

I'm unhappy at Dell as the next guy but I see no issue with MD paying for his daughters wedding.

America, land of the ignorant bootlicker.
This guy ruined tens of thousands of lives with pointless layoffs, forcing the remaining employees to work overtime, laid people off before they could claim earned bonuses, and so on, just to scrape away a few more million to hoard, and people still defend this stuff?

Billionaires only exist by stealing from people who do the actual work and they get away with it because bootlickers keep licking that boot and letting them.

"What are you on about, the company isn't crumbling, it's highly profitable"

It's only profitable because they've layed off tens of thousands of employees. This method isn't sustainable for long.

You’re telling me you’re a d-bag without telling me you’re a d-bag.

Nope. Gotta disagree with you here....

Sure the company's decisions the last few years have been crazy and pretty disappointing....but up to say, 5-6 years ago the guy has put some serious work/grift in, call it what you want, but he's made money, and has every right to spend it on his family

its absolutely disgusting -- he's absolutely out there ruining people's lives by cutting off their lively hood, meanwhile, he is spending millions on a party.

I hope he gets what he deserves in the end.
