I'm confused. They are already killing it (EA has a 19.84% operating margin).
I mean, cool and great for them if they manage to pull it off . . .
but also they have like 7k employees and are hand over fist raking it in; so, all considered . . . kinda greedy. Not making more money when you are almost double some of your large competition's margins isn't going to harm your business.
Going from 33% margin to 19% is bad for business regardless how much youre profiting. That means you're spending more money to make less. That's no good.
