Time to make a move.

Lack of visionary leadership
Today brought significant layoffs of IC and 1st/2d line managers, yet the real "architects" of this disaster, they call their cloud GMT strategy, blindly continue on. Apparently, they're going to have to burn through $Billions of more dollars before... — read more
