i just moved about 40corps. Most of them all 10% hiring yet it was noted that i still had to pay a relocation tax (they where mostly techies). These silly taxes need to be moved for fixed.

CEO pay
Country resource fee
Salaries
Taxes
And support Clinics/Back to work schools
And we have to pay closure and relocation fees

Hardly seems fair that if im @ 10% employment because the president cant manage his/she workers, im punished for leaving.

Can either these limits be removed or fixed.

Can the GM please look into helping out CEOS in a couple ways.

-I know its been brought up the GM should look into lower Country resource fee to like 20%(this means taxes would play more of an effect).
-CEO should start with a higher base line production.(maybe 10%)
-Having employed housewives/disabled mean more
-Easier way to search for nations. By unemployment, taxes, welfare,

Absolutely agree on the CEO fees for relocation and closure: "There is no need."

I agree and I would like to see compensation since this was implemented.

I just moved 10 corps on WG because of shortage of workers and I payed 5% fee for each corp.

i have tried everything i know to right the ceo ship and it keeps on sinking. very little if any profit and my ranking keeps going up. and some of those who are in the top ten past and present are actually losing money. currently i've been trying to get my ceo corps above 140b value to no avail. so, i can't even ipo the corps to make a little money. that doesn't make a lot of sense.

and i'm no neophyte. several years ago i had a number one enterprise with over 750 corps making a pot full of money every month.

is there anyway to make owning an enterprise interesting if not profitable. those of us in the ceo business are a bunch of snooks if we keep just keep bending over and taking it.

Parsifal is right. I, too, have been playing this game a long time and the main reasons I can see are that worker requirements have gone up quite a few times over the past year, and productivity keeps going down. Take FMU as an example. A few months ago, FMU corps, fully staffed and fully upgraded with a salary of 500+, were producing 770 FMU per month. Now they need more workers (thus pay more salaries) and produce only 750 pcm. Of course profits have dropped!

I have to ask ... why? Do the GMs believe that the balance was wrong? Was this a deliberate re-balancing, or did they pursue their idea to make corps bigger and increase workers without fully appreciating the delicate balance involved?

I have always used my enterprise to prop up my empire, so my enterprises have never been particularly profitable. But they used to break even. Now they are losing money so fast that I am wondering if they are worth keeping.

I have 6 ceo's, all in profit.

Granted, some are less than they was before corp increases, but nonetheless, profitable

Thanks Blue, i stand corrected. i rechecked and you're right most of the top ten did have a profit but it may not be much in relation to the time and effort that goes into managing them. but maybe that's just me.

Thanks for your input Rob :)

I'd be interested to hear if you have made any significant changes recently, to address the changes the GMs have made.

Anyone else ...?

Hugs and respect

A few of my Ceo's are still making a profit with no changes before or after the updates.

On another note, 2 countries on LU are tanking since the updates which I cant figure out why yet.

I've broken my head over and over lols. I think my ceos are doing ok, maybe? I recognize that I may not be qualified to make these statements about the welfare of my entities.

With the previous statement in mind, I believe anywhere from 20 to 30 months of supplies of electricity have disappeared from corps I supplied just yesterday in Factory Fatcakes Inc. On GR. I went to top them off today with fresh supply and notice they all don't have the +30 month supply I left them with yesterday.

It appears the same happened on FB in Bling n things. Added electricity yesterday all random number of supplies.

I thought this could be due to some changes due to new corps upgrading, but this cannot be true because the Golden Rainbow enterprise's corps are possibly centuries old, all upgrading done. So this doesn't appear to be the case in both enterprises. Thks
