| Since when do we fill jobs with people who have the right background.
Mr. Lucente is the only notable exception I am aware of.

| Someone in my office likens the situation at Digital with
Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Baily circus. The THEME and
ACTS change from year to year. The CLOWNS stay the same.
They just change costumes.

| Don't you guys see it. It is jobs for the boys. Note carefully that
most of the new talent Palmer bought in to run the CBUs has now
resigned. It appears the "broderbond" couldn't absorb it. I admire
Palmer for bringing in new blood when he formed the original CBUs. The
problem is there is an ENORMOUS layer of middle and upper management
that is very resistant to change and will always find jobs for each
other.
I've seen this first hand. I'm currently running for the DCU Board of
Directors on a platform that involves a level of change. It is a sight
to behold to see the "broderbond" ie the holders of power doing all
they can to put pressure on those of us that don't subsribe to the
brotherhood. It even crosses corporate entities.

| re .6 Corporate Industry Marketing Team
Are these the folks responsible for the 120 new req's
in vtx? IE:
3 DATE 940330 36AE MARKETING CONSULTANT at RCH
4 DATE 940330 36AF MARKETING EXECUTIVE at RCH
Do some of the products really this much marketing?
Are all the "worker bees" titled consultant & executive?
Will all the industries be targeted from the Rocky Hill Ct.
office?
Is this just the hiring site?
Will there be more req's?
How big is the marketing force now?
Yikes!

| Can't you folks see: Our Sr. Marketing team IS good at
marketing...THEMSELVES!
I recently had a brief discussion with someone in 'other than alpha'
marketing, and his commments gave me heart-burn "I USED to have
an attractive carreer path in marketing, but now it's dead-ended"
"There's so much turmoil and politics in this group I'm ready to quit
( if I didn't need the health coverage)"
If this is typical of today's Digital Marketeers(I certainly hope it isn't)
we're in BIG trouble folks!

| What is the difference between "CORPORATE INDUSTRY MARKETING" and
"AMERICAS INDUSTRY MARKETING"..
The more we change the more things look the same !!!!

| One difference between the old and the new industry marketing
organization I heard of is that the new one has fewer people
in it.
A lot fewer people.
