- GoToRO 8y agoMe.
- oaththrowaway 8y agoOath (Yahoo) doesn't even use Yahoo Mail. We're all on GApps.
- soared 8y agoAre you guys internally talking about bid caching/etc? Curious if its on your radar/in discussion or just a non-point.
- oaththrowaway 8y agoI couldn't tell you, luckily I'm on a different team.
- Nightshaxx 8y agoWhat exactly is Verizon's plan with your company if I may ask? Are they just looking to make money off of existing customers and the few good products they have, or are they going to try and make a move to become a serious silicon valley competitor?
- oaththrowaway 8y agoI can't say what Verizon's plans on for sure, they are pretty hands off from what I can tell. Oath's goal is to be the premier "AdTech" company. According to leadership we're only behind Google and FB. But the division I work in doesn't touch ads so I'm not the best person to talk to.
- Nightshaxx 8y agoHmm that's pretty interesting. Makes sense that they are trying to get in on the ad game, but I would expect them to rebrand to get the revenue on the search/mail ads and such since Yahoo has the infrastructure already for it. I assume that if Verizon is being hands off Yahoo must be doing decently well. Otherwise I'd imagine they would be trying to move it in a new direction.
- empath75 8y agoVerizon was fairly hands off with aol as well when I worked there. I think they just don’t know what the fuck to do with those companies now that they bought them, to be honest.
- oaththrowaway 8y agoWhen the company I work for was bought out by Verizon they gave it to AOL for that reason.
