If they don't then one of two things will happen. Either the stock holders will can the CEO for someone who will do the job, or the company will become uncompetitive and go out of business soon thereafter.
So you can sit there and blame them all you want but you're still gonna be out of a job.

Uh huh......
, so explain to me why the CEO of my company told me their stopping 401K matching in any capacity because "nobody else is doing it in this economy"? Considering our company was making its quarterly quota's, that is utter BS.
Oh, and explain to me why I haven't recieved my last bonus from a year ago that was promised if we made our quarterly goals (which we did), and yet the company has money for the CEO to travel all over the world?
Oh and explain to me why our company's revenue is going up, but the expenses are also going up due to the CEO travellling around all the time? From what I heard, hes travel expenses are breaking the company.
Oh and explain to me why a CEO will boot people out of their office that they resided in for the last 8 years, only to turn it into his private conference rooms while said people end up in some cubby hole? Did i mention he's never even there?
This guy is a stark contrast to our last guy. He founded the damn company, and cared about its people. He took care of us, we took care of him. He got results and didnt travel anywhere near as much as this new guy we have. He also took a "whats good for the goose is good for the gander" approach. He never sat upon a virtual throne and treated everyone like ****.
I can go on and on. Yeah the board wants results, but there is a point to achieve those results that crosses an ethical line. (edit: decided to cut back on the vitriol a bit, however therapeutic. )
