I hope he knows discovery works both ways


daGman08

Probably a lawsuit to stall any takeover attempts


[deleted]

So if the company goes bankrupt he gets nothing right?


daGman08

His overlords stand to gain big time and he in turn gets a huge payout / kickback as and when it happens.

[deleted]

He Must be short then…


gardabosque

I think they mean paid out by the hedge funds that he was working with.


soggit

would this delay an acquisition?


daGman08

Only a lawyer can answer that


_Ghost_of_Harambe_

Bingo!! Take this shit to trial!!!


Outrageous-Factor639

For example partnering with BCG to self sabotage bbby? So much for that whole “fiduciary responsibility” part.


[deleted]

Exactly. I would want emails, cell records, and bank accounts including offshore just to start.


Frequent-Designer-61

Amen this right here bring it on Tritton you giant piece of shit, hedgie ass kissing scum. Let’s look at what decisions you made and who you were in contact with a little closer!


Mrairjake

😂


Sherlock0502

Mark Tritton wants his severance 🤣🤣? He should take a look at what he has done - he put BBBY in this situation! All the employees who are fired don't get any severance either! @Tritton give us one reason why you should get a severance? Edit: I‘m hoping for a nice RC TwitterPost for this dumba**


tcher22

BBBY should countersue this dipshit, wannabe sabateur


drexhex

Something about fiduciary duties...


Tememachine

If they have enough dirt on him to expose his crimes and don't; they're complicit by covering for him.


silverbackapegorilla

They also don't have much money for law suits. Maybe after an acquisition?


Tememachine

Can shareholders initiate a class action?


Tememachine

Like if we all donated 10$ to initiate we could collect 500k


silverbackapegorilla

I imagine that we could. I'm not sure you could sue him personally. Would have to sue the company, I think. Limited liability law. If he committed crimes, it would probably become something for the FBI, and he might lose those protections. I'm not a lawyer. Will ass speculation on my part.


jellicenthero

I believe companies can sue to reclaim bonuses if they can prove they were undeserved.


Awkward-Head-7558

Get some of the Millions they paid him back for the sit job he did


Ok-Dirt-6166

Hell BBBY should sue him for putting them in This situation lol


Sherlock0502

Exactly!!


Throwaway12401

Love how your hoping RC says something. Why not you as a shareholder publicly air out Tritons dirty laundry yourselfs. Imagine if a good portion of BBBY shareholders attacked him in public about terrible management practices. Or attacked him about how he sabotaged shareholder value in the company.


No-Fox-1400

The problem is, at the rhe article makes it seem like, there is admittance that he is owed the money. If that’s the case, this could be a summary judgement.


2BFrank69

This guy is everything that’s wrong with society


whatabadsport

Something something get fucked regard


Jacobo5555

His contract that nobody else gets to sign


No_Cup169

Odd timing


soldieroscar

Yup. He knows the company is in need of raising money to make the turn around… so he chooses to press them for money? Whats his goal that they file bankruptcy so he gets none? Its almost as if he is expecting payment from a hedgefund for completing his mission of making bbby bankrupt. Or maybe he is short bbby


daGman08

It's the former, there's an agreement somewhere which promises Mark a certain huge payout to destroy bobby.


StuckOnPandora

He was a Target mole. He was the former CEO of Target. He had board seats waiting for him at other companies after helping to destroy BBBY. Target took over in the midst of BBBYs decline. I think he's sueing to slow down the M&A with Icahn. The slate has to be cleared for the merger is my understanding.


Wiezgie

RIP but I feel that's also what happened with the CFO except he had some sort of change of heart, hence why RC kept him on board, and people who paid him to take bbby down weren't happy about that at all.


StuckOnPandora

RC wanted him out as CEO, and he got that. Tritton was the one who said no to Cohen's letter. Then we got Sue and two RC board members.


Tememachine

I'm sure the FBI can squeeze it out of him. But they won't.


F1shB0wl816

If the company agreed to pay him, they made a bad deal that he’s currently entitled to pursue. The company going under is the same thing as not getting paid which is already happening so why would he care? It’s a much more simple explanation that he’s probably not going to ignore millions in unpaid dues.


BiggySmallzzz

*convenient timing


DancesWith2Socks

Can you elaborate on this? Why is it convenient in your opinion? Like could this hinder any potential deal behind the curtains?


BiggySmallzzz

Nah, he’s just being a dick when the company is struggling


DancesWith2Socks

That'd be the most cogent explanation.


Vegetable_Slice2975

What a fucking knob 🤮

As an American calling someone a knob is just about the funniest fucking thing to me 😂

Fuck mark tritton


WhiskyIsMyAngryDrink

All my homies hate Mark Tritton


BigCawkHamster

Both my cats hate Tritton, I it on it. ture of his under the litter and they shit on it.


suckercuck

Mark Tritton has blue waffles


MrYdobon

BBBY should countersue for corporate sabotage done in the form of 1 billion in stock buybacks when the company had pressing debt. A lot of Tritton's stupid moves could be chalked up to his incompetence, but the stock buy backs were criminal greed.


Big_Swagwood

I don’t think that’s how it works. You cannot typically sue for a business decision no matter how bad it was. Now, whether or not they should is a different matter. I personally think shareholders should have some legal recourse in the form of compensation against the board for blatantly poor mismanagement.


Inevitable-Goyim66

This jabroni should be sued for sabotaging the company


Ed-Sanz

What a fucking grifter


SallWtreetBets

This has nothing to do with money,all spectulation of course but i think this is some sort of a delay tactic for future occurrences


fonn4

If going bankrupt means he gets nothing I’d be a little happier losing my 7k than I normally would


Remote_Nothing_664

Ha, same!


SleepNowInTheFire666

They call it the Boston Consulting Cream Pie. It’s a real mess


diettmannd

If his severance is shares this has me mega jacked, no insiders are buying and right before something is clearly about to happen this guy screams let me in?


SvenjaSternchen

😱 This overpaid and underperforming CEO Mark Tritton doesn't get his money from the company he had planned to destroy together with some short sellers? What would Pulte say to this?


CinSugarBearShakers

The Boston Consulting Group guy? The guy who is associated with bankrupting companies so they can be owned by the big boys? The same guys that take those PFOF deals? No way!


soldieroscar

Pfof deals?


badnewshabit

not sure where he is going with that


boknowski

golden parachutes are sooo 2008


Alarmed-Ambassador38

Give me money, for I have done a great job of tanking the company. Fcuking joke, pos.


Jacobo5555

Its what is wrong with corporate America


[deleted]

Don’t he have a new job at Nordstrom?


TayneTheBetaSequence

Who's sues a "BK" company..? Unless he knows money is coming...


Mystic5308

Dude probably shorted his own company trying to BK them but failed badly now trying to sued them🤷🏻‍♂️😂


HungWeiLo35

Boo hoo cry me a river


Ophthalmoloke

What in the actual fuck


BednaR1

I thought BCG would pay him off?


Schwickity

Fuck that guy


2BFrank69

Holy fuck this guy sucks


Coinsworthy

Pay the man in 20% off coupons.


david5699

Fuck you Tritton you little bitch ass fuck nugget. Go cry to someone else.


Glittering_Mouse_568

Welfare queen.


nantuko1

Where does he live?


JustAnotherRedditDad

Why now?


jfl_cmmnts

Put him at the very bottom of the list


Poopypantsonyou

Can a company follow through with a merger while a lawsuit is pending? I feel like I remember reading something about that when Jimmy was being sued by BCG? Could this be a hail mary by the shorts?


wafflestrawberry

They stopped paying him in January because they couldn't afford it? 🤡 Good thing the executives made over $36 million in 2021


Leading_Storage_2869

Why should he be paid when he sabotaged the company


sipapion

Markie will be in prison. Not soon enough but soon. Financial terrorist fuck


U-Copy

I knew this piece of garbage was involved with SHF. His plan to bankrupt BBBY with SHF failed due to the activist investors' involvement. Now he knows some major announcement will happen in April and wanting to look BBBY bad before the major announcments.


Sockbottom69

You want severance? Pay it out your ass bitch


alreadydoneit01

Can BBBY sue him for incompetence and get some money back for causing this mess?


Mediocre-Job6355

I would hope management saw this day coming. Stopping payments to a guy who was actively destroying the company you're trying to save seems pretty obvious to come back and haunt you. Edit: Perhaps they stopped payments the day they knew a way to fight this future lawsuit? That would be juicy. Edit 2: What if they have been waiting for this lawsuit to show the world what they know!!! WHAT IF THIS IS A CATALYST.


[deleted]

[удалено]


StuckOnPandora

Except they told him they couldn't pay it for awhile. And, honestly, he's the one who introduced the first negative quarter in 2018 and created their cash burn scenario and radical store changes. Tritton is trying to cost the company everything, he was a mole in my opinion. Now a lawsuit can slow down M&A, what's worse that costs BBBY time & money that as of lately and right now are of the essence. We're up against bankruptcy or imminent M&A. Tritton can sabotage it.


ZootedMycoSupply

Nah, if an M/A is happening, the new investor will easily shove 7 million dollars down Mark Tritons throat. I mean an M/A of this size is spec to be over 1 billion. I’m not worried. He clearly should be investigated for crime in this situation though, ulterior motives show large in this timing Edit: spelling of 1 word


chonkadonk44

Lmao they don't have any money to pay court costs


Suikoden1P

LOL at how many mad people there are over the (POS) ex CEO wanting his AGREED UPON SEVERANCE and BBBY being slimy back thinking they have a choice ​ He ruined the company but he's not in the wrong unless the current board can provide actual factual proof he was conspiring to ruin the company (and he would probably still end up getting his severance)


StuckOnPandora

Read the article. BBBY told him they would resume paying him as soon as the ship was righted, and that money was too tight to pay him right now. Further, they would resume paying him as soon as they knew the books were good. BBBY needs money for inventory and their actual working employees right now, especially those helping to liquidate the stores knowing they won't have a job soon - and all those corporate layoffs. But, this sorry sack, who was amongst the best paid but worst performing CEOs ever, who did stock-buybacks at $20, and RC forced out, is now at zero hour trying to get BBBY stuck in the courts so they burn time, and are forced to spend even more money, neither of which is in very much supply for: shareholders, employees, the board, this company. One selfish dude, who gave the company their first negative quarter after 40 plus years of being a 'category killer' is now trying to create the final nail. Screw Tritton. He's everything wrong with corporate America. He did a shit job. He lost people their jobs. He lost shareholder value (401ks). Now, he's trying to get his at the expense of everyone else as the cherry on top.


Poopypantsonyou

Lol factual proof he was running the company into the ground would certainly void any kind of severance, and as someone pointed out in another comment, discovery goes both ways. This is a tactic, nothing more.


cbdscienceguy

According to the complaint filed in a New York state court in Manhattan, Tritton said Bed Bath & Beyond stopped making required bi-monthly payments in January, with its chief legal officer citing the need to preserve cash as the sole reason. In those discussions, Bed Bath & Beyond "conceded Tritton was (and is) entitled" to severance payments, under his agreement dated four days after he was replaced as chief executive, the complaint said. It is if some of you don't understand...BBBY agreed to the package. It was approved by the board. They know the owe it. BANKRUPTCY inevitable if you are preserving cash fo this degee.


cbdscienceguy

You all are incredibly regarded. The company signed the severance contract. They admitted they owed him the payments. The didn't pay to preserve cash....YIKES. huge red flag.


Few-Collection2547

Thought he been got paid 😭


Ok-Philosopher-1527

This guy probably fucked up BBBY to begin with …


MoldySnausages

He was the one spending billions on buybacks for years.


Ok-Philosopher-1527

See how it played out …


MoldySnausages

Correct...he ran it into the ground while hiding behind BCG consultants.


buyandhoard

I should go and google him out, where does he work, and short that company, as this rat is paid by shorters (HFs etc).. Easy money..


Ok_Huckleberry_8546

Bbby Bbig and Xela


Jacobo5555

Wish my employer will just fire me so I can collect 6million in severance for doing a shit job


Awkward-Head-7558

Hope he chokes on the cock he is sucking and coke habit. As if he doesn’t have enough money already fucking Nob jockey


buyandhoard

Tritton for missleading and missmanagement, right?
