Plano Foundry building the graveyard of telecom empires.
yup another great one from Randy!!! what a f'ing resume!!!! Why it matters: AT&T built Xandr under the leadership of then-CEO Randall Stephenson as a way to bring more automation to TV advertising. But without the data and inventory from AT&T's media units, which are being spun off, Xandr's platform is not worth all that much.
Every time you turn over a rock at this company, some other example of corporate malfeasance rears its head.
We'd be better off with a potted plant in the exec chair.
That is the amazing part. Stankey can thumb his nose at T rank and file. Hopefully karma will prevail, and he will get what's coming to him.
Xandr - just another of the huge lists of companies that T bought high, ruin the acquisition, and then will sell low. BAU for T. Stinky will probably get another $9M bonus as a deal maker while he is at it.
It is just that Ratty and Stinky had wasted the most $ ever in history and handsomely profited while being incompetent J E R K O F F S to the employees, shareholders and customers who got hosed over.
