I used to think that G2 has a good talking game but each time he speaks, he doesn't even have that, let alone any technical knowledge. So what did the ELT see in him?
Is he just a good cost saving person for Cisco? Seems to be better quite a lot on India. So makes me think about that, as the only possible way this guy can get anywhere.
Startups grow and hire more not the other way around unless the startup goes out of business.
It looks like people need to look up the word "legacy." Startups don't have 85,000 existing employees to draw from either.
"“We can’t be a fast follower. Market leadership has to come from Product” clown show posse can't produce a real forecast for any product, neither current or planned so where's he getting his info from, the id--ts that produced the russian dossier??
The beat off was missed because today coding day for me day.
It was odd how Chuck and Gary were both MIA & Fran gave a recap of the earnings call. Why didn’t Scott? do that as the CFO? Isn’t that his job?
@wfk+1vzwJsTb, I let it play in the background just to show I was connected.
I listen to the intro & the Q&A, then I might watch the replay later at 1.5x speed later it I hear about something worth hearing about.
Plus, by being connected when it starts, I can scroll through the questions typed & their answers in case they’re not posted as a transcript on the replay page. I rarely care about the comments as it’s usually:
- Hi from location
- Fran, you look great; love your hair
- Where’d so-and-so get that shirt/pin/mug?
- or the spicy comments that got the comments paused.
@mxt+1vzwJsTb She’s a CR clone. So yes she’d be awful, but let’s be real - it’s been awful.
The BEATings will continue until morale improves...
when my calendar says "Cisco Beat", this tells me I can:
- do housework
- play with the dog
- play with the wife
its a free hour
you people actually watch this?
G2 is just a (complete the sentence)
Hard to move to fast when you keep firing people every six months. Startups grow and hire more not the other way around unless the startup goes out of business.
chat pausing is "we don't want to hear anything that isn't positive from you all"
@mgl+1vzwJsTb That would be a disaster for Cisco.
Sounds like she's being groomed for CEO. Her talking points were CEO points.
“We can’t be a fast follower. Market leadership has to come from Product” - G2.
Ok G2... how’s that Product re-org looking? Should we expect to see that org chart and alignment before the end of Q2?
Same folks who won't speak a word to their manager would be the ones complaining the most
Beat !
this, plus the chat pausing? wth? If the chat is soo disruptive (and I get some ppl have gone WAAAAAY to far) FIRE THEM. Instead what does ELT do? punish ALL of us. Sc--w this place.
"we're gonna pause chat until the Q&A"
lol.
