The new CMO (who joined a couple of weeks ago) had an informal Q&A session this afternoon with all associates in EBM.
One thing she noted was that EBM would take longer to define the org structure than the rest of the firm.
The question on everyone’s mind was- does that put displaced EBM associates at a disadvantage because any open roles will get filled before they have a chance to apply.
Her response was - “ I want to get it right and not fast. I will try to get cascade 2 for EBM done at the same time as the rest of the firm but no guarantees.”
That response and mindset so lacks empathy and human centeric view. She wants to take her own sweet time at the cost of associates’ livelihood. If she delays cascade 2 for EBM, i sincerely wish she fails at EJ and gets kicked out like the associates she will have impacted.
