I like that. Bill is a history major, should be teaching history somewhere. He also likes the Botox. Can barely move his upper lip anymore.
If his dad was still alive none of this cr-p would be going on.
I cant watch the town halls anymore!
Its like they are selling the same product over and over again. They change the stage, the announcer and the color of the product. The announcer still is in-com-petant and the product still bl-ows chunks.
Agreed.
JF is uncomfortable to watch. He comes off stiff and insincere.
BF is polished, well tailored and does not rely on a teleprompter. However, after each Town Hall it remains a mystery why the History major’s cousins haven’t shown him to the door. It’s not like they are reaping the rewards of his innovation and creativity. But of course placing the blame for the company's woes on the CEO takes the heat off of the history major who put him - and all of the other disastrous CEOs - there.
Can we pile the management team on Hackett’s red wagon and roll them off the stage?
I don't attend the townhalls. Our leadership are like politicians. If their lips are moving, they're lying.
I recall when the company was going through the CUTs in the 2000s MF would at least come out 3-4 months ahead of time to let people know the cuts were coming. I know the rumor mills were spinning then and some of us knew before the announcement was made.
I wish the company would stick to that practice. I remember back in 08 we had a guy return from an overseas assignment who decided they wanted to build a house. Well, when the company informed us of the impending cuts, he did not pursue that house. he was let go later on. Thank God because he was in a world of hurt back then.
But I agree the TH's are soft and not very informative.
Just look at the CHAT the past few weeks regarding the bonus to the rationale for the % the LL6 & GSR were originally given. Then you have the recent JF comments to the press. Why is he not telling the troops first?
A true leader tells his troops the state of the company and the actions or plan they have to implement. Not dance around like they have been the past three weeks. Its sickening to watch. The body language "STEVIE WANDER" could read. our own senior management does not believe this plan. HHT & JF can not take their eyes away from the teleprompter.
