In Reply To: CornerCube I think everybody still talks in TB and CB terms because they have very very distinct cultures and completely different remuneration and career progressions profiles. And they recruit differently as well. Irrespective of what teaming may go on across the divisions, these distinctions will perist. With regard to performance, yes, CB was a hurting unit from 2001 (not 200O) through to the end of 2002, maybe a bit longer. And at that time, TB certainly carried CB, although it really only mattered at partner level (where bonueses are based on combined results). Two years ago, I think CB hit its mark and last year it was way ahead. Same is projected for this year.
Message: TB's performance has been simply awesome each year for the last ten. Over the past two years, CB has had a modest recovery from a flat period that lasted the better part of a decade. The gap in performance of TB vs. CB has widened over time. This is not because CB has failed. The reason is that even as CB achieves a modest gain, TB is growing at a much faster rate. The income from TB is what is driving the investments being made in CB.
