Thompson needs to go as Yahoo's CEO | VentureBeat | News | by Rakesh Agrawal
Summary
But the biggest problem with the explanations is that they still don’t explain how Thompson’s fictitious credentials made it into Yahoo’s regulatory filings. ) Although 40 is a very small sample, the open comments from employees were interesting: “It’s extremely disappointing given his recent All Hands speech to Yahoos worldwide about the importance of integrity. Just a very frustrating experience to be a part of, but I will be hanging in there because I BELIEVE IN WHAT THIS COMPANY COULD BE AGAIN.” “What I don’t agree with, and do not feel good inside about is that this puny lie ever occurred. I think that other than his lying on his resume, he (and the entire company) have handled this snafu terribly.” “I’m appalled by the lack of integrity and honesty displayed by Scott Thompson who apparently isn’t even willing to apologize for his misrepresentations. Those reasons would be the repeated cycles of layoffs and reorganizations, a narrow minded focus on short term profits, and Scott’s decisions to sue Facebook and dismantle the Products group.” A common theme in the comments was that everyone should play by the same rules.
