People are you kidding me? The one guy that cared about this place? It’s like we are trying to fail!!

The cloud guy's not too bad, not that enterprise has worked with him because we only have good reasources, accounts, and leads for commercial sales. They just expect us to rub wet, limp sticks together to make fire. SC is kinda a deal vampire. It's easy to be the best if you just get put in everything... Just saying
There are still a handful of people left. I would say the best people we have are SC and the cloud guy with the odd name who used to report to MH. I would imagine if MB is serious about turning this place around, they will keep those guys here and give them the ability to do more. If they are trying to burn this place down, you will see them leave/ get booted out (battle ship sunk)
@8acl+17rA5kja you clearly never worked with him. I have and can say from experience he has done more for his people and this company as a whole then most will ever do. Keep your ignorant negativity to yourself. We don't need it at this company.
MH? Your best sales leader? LOL. Talk about an arrogant, pompous clown. You’re better off without him.
Whose running sales in NA and EMEA now then ?
Time to go.......
Wooooohooooooo
@5wcj+17rA5kja. Best of luck to you, can't be any worse than this place ;-)
This is going to be fun. I just got my offer and can’t wait to resign. Stay hungry my friends
Ok a week later and I have no clarity!!! This place is being driven into the ground. Not sure how this new approach is going to work. Wait a second I don’t even know what the new approach is.
Wait let’s get rid of some of our best people and then overload a single leader with everything. Makes no sense to me. But what do I know I’m just a greedy sales guy. SMGDH
Keith Tilley should have been named CEO and Andy Stern should have been given the boot many many years ago. Andy was brought in to maneuver Sungard AS through bankruptcy ... that was his mission and vision.
Not the first time EMEA has bailed out NA. However, under the guise of globalisation we are still adhering to a centralised structure being decided and deployed out of NA, the very place that is haemorrhaging uncontrollably. Go figure !
NA your sales have been so poor. EMEA have now over taken you and yet the US decided what process we all need to follow. Grow up!
Have to agree with the poster. MH was doing everything he could to mitigate the complete ineptitude of the field and channel sales organizations. Makes me wonder how much time everyone who reported to him has left and who will actually sell anything.
About a third of his team hit their target last year. No one else got close. Seems like the death spiral will accelerate. Time to get the resumes polished if you hadn't already.
LOL the last good sales leaders left years ago 3-5 years ago...
