Heads never roll for executive leadership, and often not even other management (though apparently did for 2042 at least). It's usually the developers who have zero control over the disaster spearheaded by leadership that bear the brunt of the consequences.

@edgecrusherO0the fact that almost the entire leadership from DICE was "let go" speaks volumes as to how dire the situation was/is and how pissed EA was at these individuals...
Who ever could have thought that the creative/studio lead for Candy Crush might not be the best person to run a core-game development studio?!
Based on 2042, I'm not even sure he had any management chops worth a darn either. Especially given that Vince had to come in and change/update/improve processes internally because they were a mess.
Not saying it's all his fault, it's a team effort to deliver this kind of disaster of a game. But it sure doesn't help when the top guys previous experience is...a casual mobile game.
