Thread regarding Zenith Education Group layoffs

Seriously. What happened to Troy Stovall?

It really bothers me that we have not been given any explanation as to why our (Interim) President, Troy Stovall, is no longer with the company. He was fired or quit on Thursday 5/14, but we didn't hear about it until late on Monday 5/18. It bothers me because Troy came here to Tampa and had a meeting with the entire site about 2 weeks ago. He gave a good speech and actually gave us a little bit of hope, which we haven't had for a very long time at this school. Now that he is gone, does that mean that everything he said is now "out the window?" We were shocked to learn about his departure, and nobody has been able to give us a reason why he left. In the past, whenever someone high up left the company, they would send us a farewell email, or we would get an email explaining that "_____ has left to pursue other interests. We thank him/her for their hard work and wish them the best." The only notice we got was a short email from Dave Hawn that said "Effective today, I will be assuming the role of President of Zenith Education Group, in addition to my duties as CEO. Interim President Troy Stovall is no longer with the company. All of Troy’s direct reports now report to me."

It is shady and unprofessional for a company to remain silent on why our President is no longer with us. At least tell us something, the silence is worrisome.

This company is such a mess. They will die out by the end of the year.

It says very little about you OP if you could not see what an utter, out of his element complete idiot Stovall was. He had neither the qualities nor the capacity to hold that position. The best analogy is that he really was the "face" of Everest...illiterate, inadequate, ill prepared for his role.

You should really be asking about who the hell hired him??? If it was Hawn, OMG this company is over before it began.

I know he was not going to hold that Position long due to the title given Interim

What do you expect from debt collectors??? I gave my two week notice and left the very day that all the layoffs came. I'm not saying that I'm smarter than everyone left at Zenith, but I feel very blessed to be out of the muck and mire that Zenith is falling into. Troy probably gave Zenith some hope, but I was always leery about his title being Interim President. My strong suggestion to everyone that is left at Zenith is to stop looking for answers and start looking for better employment. You don't have to work for companies like Zenith.
