I do consulting - and I spent some time with the Sears data science team. Don't get your hopes up. A broken culture is hard to change. They seemed pretty "downtrodden". (I should add that they were all good people. I would work with any of them again.)
- fixxer 11y agoI know a few people there and no, my hopes are nonexistent. I'm honestly amazed they still exist.
- gogopuppygogo 11y agoI know a few people on the management team. It's basically a sinking ship with no one trying anymore. They'd do better spinning the brand into it's own entity under a licensing agreement with a competent ecommerce company like Newegg. In fact that should probably be their strategy if they want to survive. One entity for the real estate, one for the brick and mortar then another for online commerce. Then have Newegg acquire the majority share of their ecommerce business and rebrand as Sears. It'd be like lightning growth hit them since the Newegg guys know what they are doing in online commerce. But that'd never happen.
