It’s time for CL to follow suit here I mean c’mon man — What are she and the board waiting for? How much lower and worse, respectively, does the stock and culture have to rot before she’s out?
@rv IF CDW FOLLOWS??? That ship sailed. CDW set the pace for Insight on this.
Cap Gemini is to Insight as Slalom is to CDW
@pz you are a fool. Google retail loss leader…
Joyce got pushed out cause she is terrible and missed countless quarters, my friends over at Insight all despise her and her constant switching of strategy, that and all the id--ts that they have hired from Cap Gemini. If CDW follows the same pattern, don't think that a silver bullet will cure all the ailments. the rot is deeper than that.
@nf And just to complicate it further,recently I reached out for employee pricing for a tablet I was picking up. We were higher than Best Buy on that, laptops, and monitors. When I asked how our wholesale price was higher, the associate pushed me toward the outlet prices on the website. So basically, the "benefit" of employee pricing is more expensive than I can buy the exact same stuff retail at Best Buy, Walmart, or through any of the manufacturer. Websites. Some benefit.
@ac We aren't selling anything that will get us to record highs - we have no GTM strategy, implementation or consulting teams and NO products in-house, everything we sell is someone else's intellectual property that we sell at ridiculous low or no margins. How the heck are we supposed to make money with <3% margins??? We resell, we don't invent or upsell anything and we do it with low dollar deals instead of focusing on large customers with budgets. We need to stop selling 75% of our kit to 1x buyers just to pump up fake sales pipelines.
Swill she return to the house on 30 tide watch in Newport coast California?
@OP She knew it was coming but damn they did her cold! The 8-K announcing that was dropped in the first minutes of the earnings call after the share price plummeted. By the end of the call (pre- QnA) she had to acknowledge it.
I predict they are getting MK primed to take over for CL, and looking for a successor for LC. It will happen soon. Need a new Board too. They have failed all of us. Institutional shareholders are jumping ship. 130 stock price in a hot tech market, driven by AI hardware. Shouldn’t we be near all time highs? Bonkers.
