This honestly sounds like there is some real shady shit going on behind the scenes by the heads of these two companies. Reminds me of the whole VFX / software engineering union debacle with Steve Jobs / Lucas / etc that eventually came out and was super duper illegal.

Amazing, so Steve Jobs was involved in TWO conspiracies to fix wages!?

How about instead of idolizing people like this we charge them with felonies and put them in prison?

Meaty! Thanks for sharing.. At this point, it's pretty clear universally everyone within the top management ranks of big companies are sociopaths with money mania. All while feeding the lower ranks and the public beautiful stories about their juggernauts and the humble beginnings.

I’d love to hear more about that debacle, but everything I’m finding is just another Jobs-Pixar hagiography. Any pointers on how to learn more?
