Large but declining talent pool and questionable senior management
Large but declining talent pool and questionable senior management
- There are still a lot of talented people here, given the size of the company.
- Yahoo! still has a large user base and provides a rich playground for addressing challenging problems such as scalability, security, and user experience.
- Balanced work and life.
- Many talented people have left.
- Continuous organizational changes and focus shifts.
- Too much time spent on planning.
There are still a lot of Yahoos who stay and want to see Yahoo! thrive. Please give them the utmost respect and support so they can deliver kick-ass work.
Reduce excessive planning. We need execution.
Relocating core technology outside the US for cost reduction is short-sighted.
