Sooner! Puppets at middle level management already sending in cuts to their masters at the C level. Unfortunately, some won't see it coming and could be walked out as soon as next week.

Skeleton crew as of present, this move is out to steal the soul of the skeleton and fry any morale that existed.

@edvm+1fV6aLAN - Funny enough I have loads of calls from India trying to sell me something or other, or tell me my broadband has been hacked. etc.

@eotw+1fV6aLAN - I'm with you there. The product decisions have been pi$$ poor for years and have not been fit for a long time. Add a front end to ECS for customers to deploy their own servers would have saved a lot of heartache.

@eotw+1fV6aLAN Spoken like a faithful member of the sales org or a SIMP for sales. While I don't think it was a great decision to move accounts to India, at least someone is calling customers and trying to do something. I bet you're one of those who cries about having a good "brand" and then spends 90% of their day messing around while other people work.

Instead of blaming sales or marketing, how about delivering some original, amazing products and solutions, which can be architected, quoted, and delivered in a timely manner, then supported by people the customers can understand when they have to deal with them?

They still have a ton of dead weight in sales even after MB's departure. The worst part is how they still consider ignorantly themselves successful as they continue to lose customers and money.

MB was useless and contributed to the mess that SGAS finds itself in. Now it’s a mess that can only be solved in a full liquidation.

Of course - barely acknowledge our existence throughout 2020-2022, but keep us all informed when one of the cancers gets removed. Typical.

Does anyone actually work at SG on this site. MB left due to personal health reasons, which were known in the business. It was announced on Friday via Email to the whole business.

Just wait until they find out which huge customers won't be renewing soon, even though they appear to be going through all the expected motions right now. But the forecasts!

Sadly I think you are right. I don't see any new deals in pipe line, it really does not look good for the US. Considering what has happened in the UK, I'm not sure how long we in the US have left.
