It's a similar situation to Amazon, where they're still quite a hefty profit, but it's not as much profit as the shareholders want, so they keep leaning heavy on Bezos and frequently tear him down because he has this bizarre, unamerican aspiration to serve the customers above the profit. It baffles shareholders and straight outta Harvard MBAs like particle physics.
