Stephen Elop Departs Australian Telco Telstra
- rbanffy 8y agoIs it the first company that survives him?
- adrian_mrd 8y agoIt’s interesting that he kept a (very) low profile in his two years at the firm. Was he persona non-grata in ‘the Valley’ after his Microsoft exit?
- rbanffy 8y agoAfter Belluzzo and Elop, I'd think twice before picking an ex-Microsoft exec for a top job at a competitor. Some people may leave Microsoft, but it feels like Microsoft never completely leaves them.
- askaboutit 8y agoTelstra isn’t surviving. It’s being attacked on every front and it’s product is junk. Share price is down considerably and their dominant position pricing on both mobile and landline is nearing an end.
- nailer 8y agoOh my god. As someone who left Australia a decade ago for better opportunities in tech, it doesn't surprise me that Telstra (the famously awful ex-government monopoly Telco) is where Elop ended up. Cool TPG (which used to be Total Peripherals, a white box computer company) is now taking them on.
