Business feel that IT is so F*** Up now. Thanks Ed, Robert, Kristy, and the other exJCP crew.

Some of us are still vested in Fossil.

Fossil is a product company and IT is just a support function, it is doing what it is supposed to do. I don't see any major difference between what it was before and how it is now. Some projects were done well and some were poorly done and story now is no different.

Fossil never could and never will figure out wearables...as the other person stated - too many failures over the years. It's endemic in the company culture which has only gotten worse. If you are still there it's because you are too foolish to see the writing on the wall.

There is a reason why a Fossil is no longer the no 2 watchmaker and has been supplanted by Apple
