they were flying for so long in auto pilot that it was time to turn the plane or land the plane they realized that they forgot to land the darn thing.
EH never flew the plane so he does not know how to land so he is going on a circle probably until he figures out how to (it has been 2 years) or until it runs out of gas which could be catastrophic.

Now, I will not say that this is unique to Nike because it happens all the time but Nike was throne for so long that he does not put up a fight to reverse the tide.

Amazing to listen to the sales president spin everything. Truth is Q1 is a disaster and the BOD and CEO are going to be making some major changes.

Will things get better or worse with MH running the company? Any opinions?

Tela Bio is reducing its workforce by 41 employees as part of a new CEO's $17 million cost-saving initiative. This restructuring will decrease the company's full-time staff from 201 to 160 individuals. The company anticipates these changes will lower annual operating expenses by approximately 18 percent. These moves come as the medical technology firm reported increased revenue but a wider net loss. The new CEO, Heather Getz, aims to create a more efficient organization for long-term growth.

saw a posting on a senior IC job that looks great, but then checked Glassdoor and it shows the CEO with a 39% approval rating. Also, 4 days in the office. WT? 🚩🚩🚩 How are things really over there? dumpster fire and don't even think about clicking apply, or not bad at all?

How much shitTel pay this cheap CEO to just lay off its employees? How many heads has been cut so far by this evil ?

What are the details not included in the ceo and cto emails?

Be ready for something big.

Questioning Maryann Mannen’s M&A experience / strength. There were rumors of a large Gulf Coast refinery acquisition that never materialized. Then leaked merger talks with P66 that fell short. These events happened when crack spreads were in the high teens and low $20’s. Imagine how either one could have further energized MPC’s share price now that crack spreads are running $60-&70. Any thoughts on possible missed opportunities by our CEO?

What is the best guest estimate as to when AK will retire?

Is there any chance at this point that RT will NOT be the new CEO?

Still too high in my opinion.

Do you feel something strange in Shanker sending the email about moving on from the layoff? The email is supposed to be from the CEO.

L3Harris granted its CEO Samir Mehta new stock options and restricted stock units with multi-year vesting beginning in 2027.

He was granted 11,831 non-qualified stock options with an exercise price of $263.56 per share, generally vesting ratably on September 1 of 2027, 2028, and 2029 and exercisable until September 1, 2036, subject to continued employment and award terms. He also received 3,036 restricted stock units subject to three-year cliff vesting on September 1, 2029, each unit representing a contingent right to one share of common stock, with vested units settled in shares.

Thank god I retired a couple of years ago. I milked the company for everything I could. The benefits have now been gutted by a greedy CEO. Now you are processed by AI when trying to do your job. Stankey looks at employees like a data stream. He sees employees as a drag on the company and not a positive. This guy has done more to destroy T than any of his predecessors. This guy is 20ish stock CEO loser I would say.

So they got rid of all us retirement age folks good luck with Sam Mehta what a statement on the first month of taking the helm. Et tu Brute?

Our indian friend Arvind is about to anounce the rename of the company to International Id--ts Machines.

This name sounds so much better according to the current situstion of the company plently of id--ts.

Full report here => https://ips-dc.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/executive_excess_2026_report.pdf

Highlights:

IBM CEO Arvind Krishna hauled in the largest compensation package in the Low-Wage 100, with $38.0 million – 765 times as much as the company’s $49,630 median pay.

Dishonorable Mentions for 2025 Category “Low-Wage 100” company

Widest pay ratio Lumentum CEO Michael Hurlston CEO pay $27.7 million Median pay $9,595

Pay ratio Lowest median wage Western Digital $9,595 Irving Tan $11.5 million Median pay $8,740

Highest CEO pay IBM CEO Arvind Krishna $38.0 million Median pay $49.630

IBM CEO Arvind Krishna hauled in the largest compensation package in the Low-Wage 100, with $38.0 million – 765 times as much as the company’s $49,630 median pay. Forty years ago, few would have imagined that this technology pioneer, renowned for providing well-paying, secure U.S. jobs, would one day rank among the Low-Wage 100. Today, IBM employs more people in India than in the United States.

Great read. Absolutely disgusting what IBM has done since King Gerstner came in 4-1-93.

Put your thoughts on what the new CEO had to say today here

Each passing day reveals how out of touch and clueless the new CEO has become. I dread having to go a year or so under his leadership before the Board realizes another mistake and fires him while he walks away with $10’s of millions of dollars. Was this hiring some kind of way to steal hundreds of millions orchestrated by the Board. I think everyone was shocked when a guy who ran a printer company was appointed CEO. We’re moving at the speed of a printer company now. I have a lot of retirement money in stock and I hate checking the account because it’s less and less every day.

Start a list to help the CEO prepare:

1. SIU Debacle
2. Updates on the new CRCO (Chief Risk Compliance Officer)
3. Compliance Transformation 5.0
4. When is Centene rebranding to Humana
5. Secret Santa
6. .......

heard it's getting the bin with the new boss/ceo coming in??

Pay him whatever he asks, just get him onboard.

Very excellent engineers have been laid off……
Businessmen like Sassine only know about profits and keep reducing his holdings of the company's stocks at low levels, which shows that he has no intention of bringing the company towards normal profitability and only has his own interests in mind.
As a CEO, such a person will cause the company to collapse

How much longer is it going to take? Apparently HP has an inflated view of who should take the job than who is actually interested in it.

Tim Cook steps down as Apple, $AAPL, CEO on August 31 after taking the company from ~$350 billion to over $4 trillion.

John Stankey steps down as AT&T, $T, CEO after taking the company from ~$215 billion to ~$178 billion.

Apple increased its market cap by roughly $3.65 trillion and AT&T lost roughly $37 billion.

Six years. Two CEOs. Completely different outcomes. I wonder why?

One led through massive innovation and growth. The other spent years making questionable strategic decisions resulting in failures of epic proportions, while simultaneously alienating the workforce with policies like 5x RTO, cutting costs and talent, and destroying culture and morale.

But I’m sure Stankey will find a way to explain how all of this is somehow the employees’ fault.

Get this l0ser Stankey out!

When what you hear from the CEO is completely different from what he is instructing his directs to do, it’s time to go.

I was trying to click on Elevance Health because they, along with other of Optum’s competitors, seem to be going through almost exactly same challenges Optum is.

Well, I accidentally clicked on Emblem Health, instead of Elevance, and their last post thread entries were from 2016 and they were saying and complaining about the very exact same thing as us…about the offshoring to India and Philippines, about the CEO laying people off to raise stock price and to line executive’s pockets, etc., etc. etc. It was like looking in a mirror and we are talking back 10 years ago.

The last post entries on the Emblem Health Layoff site ended after 2016 so I can only think the company went under.

Anyway, scary stuff!

Check the 8K filings to see Clay got an increase to $1.5MM base salary retroactive to the closing in May and an LTI award of $2.7MM while everyone is told they’ll calibrate compensation next year. Clearly merit based because the merger is going sooooooo well. Everything else is a cluster F@$! Sh-t show but when I put my head down on the pillow at night I sleep well knowing we’ve got just one CEO and he’s clearly doing so well.

Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if VA eventually replaces EH as CEO. A lot of people senior leaders are frustrated that we still haven’t seen the turnaround everyone was promised.

EH is unable to get the business moving again, especially around innovation, product, and brand momentum, the board is going to have to seriously consider a change. VA could be a logical next choice given his experience and understanding of the company. Sad part is that we don’t have any good replacement options with our stock teetering in the 30’s.
