An executive is not quite a "single rogue employee"
- asdfasgasdgasdg 6y agoIf it's a single executive, and the executive is a rogue, then it is exactly a single rogue employee. Also, although it's beside the point from the perspective of whether what I said is true, I read the complaint. It's not clear if this guy was an executive executive, or an account "executive" (i.e. a low-level administrator). I'm inclined to believe the latter based on the actions he is alleged to have taken.

- asdfasgasdgasdg 6y agoThis role does not sound like an "executive" in the sense I think of it. It sounds like an individual contributor role, and not one that sets company policy either.
