Noo, i can't imagine gifs of another guy ;(

He's being doing fine. Remember this is a Japanese company and not a American one so its not easy to completely retool and change the direction of the company.

Selling Vaio, more emphasis on mobile and playstation has been a good start.

Well let's be honest, your thread is short sighted and you offer no real reasons why Kaz should be fired.

Give some proper reasons why he should and then you can produce an healthy debate. Blindly stating that it's his fault why Sony are still losing money just makes this a troll thread.

I know you state that you're a "Sony Fanboy" but I totally agree with Telnor's comment. Your thread just shows a lack of understanding of what is actually going on at Sony.

Troll thread.

LOL Wait...the same guy who saved the PS3 and was given the huge task of saving the rest Sony after his success? Saving the whole company of Sony is no easy task. Hes making budget cuts and letting go of wasteful products. If Sony is making posting less of a loss than the last head of Sony was overseeing than he's steering them in the right direction. This guy has a huge task to undertake. He saved a portion of Sony but was handed practically a falling kingdom.

Actual market analysts are impressed with Sony's movements towards long term health. When you're dealing with an organization as large as Sony is, it takes a long time to get rid of problems accumulated over massive expanses of the past years. Paradigms have shifted considerably with rising competition from Korea and China (hence the manufacturing industry shifting out of Japan for many things by now, even from Japanese companies, unthinkable back in the 80s into the 90s!).

There are these things in real life known as obligations and liabilities. Also, governments tend to have laws. If Sony was not restricted by these things, they could be profitable tomorrow.

"Hey all you people who worked 50 years for us, you get no pensions! Sorry!"
"Hey all you companies we have signed legal contracts with to buy this, provide that, etc, well screw you, you're dead to us!"
"Hey you Japanese Government! You know all those taxes we owe for these failing business sectors? We're not paying them!"

etc.

The problem areas are being drawn down rapidly. Once those writedowns and liabilities are cut off, things will be fairly spectacular in terms of a comeback. PS4 is also going to make them a LOT more money than they could have ever planned on even in their wildest dreams pre-launch as well. It's still small compared to their insurance business, but it's going to grow large enough pretty quickly to where it will accelerate their path towards real profitability.

So yes, they're not out of the woods yet, but they have a path, and there's daylight visible. And that is due in no small part to Kaz doggedly doing his duties.

Anyone who thinks they're 'screwed', or that Kaz hasn't done exceptional work .. well to put it kindly they don't know they're talking about.

Why fire him? Sony is a slow sinking ship since 2000....

At least the Iwata hate has died down.

You aren't a mod, hate to break it to you.  You're also not contributing anything to this topic.  Follow the rules and contribute, or move along.

I dont think the op really believes this, it seems more like hes mocking the people who think Iwata needs to be fired.
