No doubt he is capable.

I think he'll end up somewhere and just fine. Someone will be willing to take a chance on him.

Personally I'm not smart enough / likely to end up working with him. But just for the sake of argument if I was I would be wary.

He took all that stuff with him... that no doubt included the work of people around him, and that showed a lot of disregard not just for his employer, but his peers. I could 'understand' if someone had a problem with their employer (still a bad choice!), but the disregard for his coworkers to me signals something else as far as his moral / ethical choices / standards... if there are any.

Do you trust that guy not just to walk off with your work, but to even represent it accurately to others? Have your back when you need it? Not sure I would.

Makes you wonder how much he earned the original $120M bonus vs just negotiating a reward scheme using ubnderhanded techniques like kickbacks and then gaming metrics or misrepresenting other people's work.
Yeah if he burned his coworkers like he did, I wonder how often he has done it to benefit himself.
