>Sundar Pichai is a subpar CEO who is overpaid and underperforming. Google's stock price has stagnated under his leadership, while the company has wasted billions of dollars on failed bets such as Google+ and the Nexus line of smartphones. It's time for a change at the top of Google, and I believe that new blood will bring new life to the company.

Not defend the guy, but Pichai is the one who pushed Page and Brin to make Google Chrome, which turned out to be a massive success, and the stock has seen over 225% returns since he’s taken the reins.

That said, he is indeed massively overpaid and should’ve stepped down before firing 1000s of Googlers who were no doubt providing more value to the company than he was.
