>Very good fit for Zynga.

This was the first thing I thought when I read the headline.

I had the same thought. His "explanation" read like spin to me. Which fits well with the Zynga style.

I'm glad these management types cluster at Zynga - its hopefully a few less we all have to deal with everywhere else

I wonder if people said the same thing about EA? And look where that got us :(

I'd be curious to hear what some of his "firing practices" were, if you wouldn't mind sharing. You seem reticent to get into details, perhaps not to add fuel to the fire - but these were practices he spoke publicly and proudly about, on the record, if I understand you correctly - and I'm curious just how people like him tick (if only so I can learn to avoid them).
