I worked at Sears in 92 and was tasked with evaluating Easel for the Promotional Marketing System, Steve Marchi's group. I recommended no. Sears went full in. I quit to write games, then to grad school. Easel and PMS went on for years. Eventually all my friends there quit. You gave me PTSD :)
- jschwar313 5y agoYea, I joined the marketing systems in '94 and it was called PMI then, Promotional Marketing Integration.
- ChrisLomont 5y agoThe PMS name didn't last long. It was a running joke on the project when it started :) The best part of working at Sears was 92 was in the Sears Tower, and somehow noob me got a window office on the 46th floor overlooking Lake Michigan. On a clear day I could see the MI shores on the other side. It also gave me a lifelong aversion to working for big companies - too slow, too out of date.
