I got news for you. Elliot and his alliance. Had enough influence over the board of directors and CEO that the spinoff took place.
This means their alliance is strong enough. Where they would’ve had enough votes to replace the border of directors and CEO.
They were given a choice. Either you do it our way and will let you sit on the board of directors when we merge with whatever company we are merging with. If not, here’s a severance package.
Here’s my point. The hedge fund and his alliance. They will help pick the CEO and the board directors. They will follow their plan to the letter. This means there will be major cost reductions.
Elliot management if you read about them. They try to hurry up and increase shareholder value, by cutting deeply. High cost jobs, redundancy, jobs that don’t meet the industrial standard salary, fake jobs created with no degrees, mid management jobs, too many vice presidents, too many group leaders, too many senior supervisors over other supervisors, and the list goes on. Don’t believe me. You better start reading about what they do.
Their goal is to bring up shareholder value as fast as they can. Either for a possible sale, and mega mergers. Business as usual. Don’t even think that for a second. Redundant jobs will be eliminated. When you move a factory to a low cost region, eliminate people at the headquarters because you’re gonna merge with another company. You won’t keep double positions around. Expect the word relocation to lower cause regions, double positions being eliminated.
They are going to bring up the shareholder value within two years. So not business as usual and if you believe this, you might as well step into the unemployment line right now. This is the Elliot management playbook. I expect y’all to read it.
