Mayer seems completely bored by the whole thing and keeps passing stuff off to Webb as "board level consideration". Doesn't make me excited for Yahoo whatsoever.
- profeta 11y agoOTOH if the CEO is excited about a tax shenanigan i will not be excited by the company.
- jonknee 11y agoYahoo's stake in Alibaba is by far the most valuable part of Yahoo. The "tax shenanigan" itself is worth more than Yahoo's core business! If she can't get excited about the majority of shareholder value she needs to step down ASAP.
- profeta 11y agobecause the CEO can do so much more than an accountant? do you also fire your doctors because they don't pray? the CEO should be rallying troops and making deals. well, at least that is the excuse for their obscene salaries and bonuses.
- jonknee 11y ago> the CEO should be rallying troops and making deals. well, at least that is the excuse for their obscene salaries and bonuses. She looked like she was asleep. Wasn't rallying anyone or making any deals. Did you watch the interview? She was talking about the most important thing she has ever done as a CEO and couldn't care less. She has checked out.
