> ceo fired then coup's his way back into the company

Are we discussing Steve Jobs in 1985?

Any time there is that much money and power involved there is going to be intense drama.

Steve Jobs left because he lost a corporate power struggle. Sam Altman was fired because the board thought he was too fundamentally untrustworthy to remain as CEO (if we're to believe their statement ofc).

Different kinds of "controversy" IMO

Sam stayed because we won a corporate power struggle.

Likely Steve Jobs left because if we stayed we would have been fired or removed of all responsibilities.

Steve also actually, you know, left. And stayed away for over a decade.

This is not drama though, it's more inline with unethical, immoral, and bad. It's indicative of company with bad character.
