Legg done with relocations?
Did Legg say that he is done with relocations in the town hall or am I hallucinating? Also are the growth hubs still there?
Management has no idea how to forecast the business
Or how to run it. Things have improved a little bit since the 2018 to 2022 fiasco, but it's still more than clear how far out of their depth the leadership is.
