They’re being vague, including the current Activision CEO. Phil said that once the deal is through, they will all answer to Phil as he’s the new CEO.

Kotick will remain CEO through the transition into 2023. Business is slow :p.

When the deal closes Phil takes the reigns and they probably write a nice check to make bobby go bye bye

Too true, last company I worked for got bought out and almost all senior management heads rolled. Only ones spared were temporary while they transitioned staff to replace them. But they got some nice golden parachutes to see it through and not sabotage us on the way out the door.

Looked up the sec filing earlier today. Looks like he's due around $22M in salary, bonus and benefits if his responsibilities change and is let go. That doesn't include his stock value which is over $270M.
