In Reply To: Fact: The poor treatment of staff by C level employees as well as Officers is a plain and simple fact of life at Adjoined. Fact Many messages on this board stand behind the statement made above. Fact: Comprehendible...not a real word Fact: You didnt take the time to read the other postings on the board; My "drivel" aside. Fact: My recommendation to a person seeking advise was to take the recruiters pitch with a grain of salt. Recuiters are salespeople whose very existence is baseed upon how may people they can bring to a company; sometimes by any means possible Fact: I stated that Andy was probably a pretty smart guy and all and I could not speak with any degree of assurance on the strategy practice in the south. That's actually a compliment Fact: You attack me as being clueless... vicious? not really...letting some folks get an inside glimpse of an organization such as this? you betcha! Fact: I stated that the Northeast was run by an egomaniacal megolomaniac. This is quite true. A subjective opinion to be sure..but still quite true. Go ahead and ask some folks about the Officer who ran NY before Mr Reid. Fact: The company has not had organic growth since it started in 2000. It acquired LogicSpan then acquired Plaut then acquired CIMA. Do you thing Plaut AG would unload a profitable arm of its business when it was (and still may be) in such dire straits? I slammed your CEO and Chief Strategy Officer..not your COO or CFO; I dont know those guys And yes its still a free country although knowing Large Man's politics I bet we wishes it werent Groundless rantings they are not. If you were able to look into my eyes you'd know that what I am saying is the truth. And finally...you "for one" have work to do...that infers that you are the only one working... I just wrapped up a real nice long work day myself Im just wondering who the appropriate folks are that you are forwarding this to... the Thought Police? So go...good luck...live long and prosper at Adjoined...
Message: Said I was out of here -- but a bit of digging around gave me some VERY interesting insight as to what is REALLY happening here. Just could not resist sharing... but first let me quickly address your facts. Fact 1: I obviously cannot speak for you or the other folks on this board but there are a great many of us here who would heatedly debate any of your purported Adjoined ??facts??. Fact 2: Some on this board have differing opinions, but none tried to bolster their arguments with blatant lies. Fact 3: Comprehendible...is a word ...an adjective, in fact. It may not apply to you though, so perhaps you should persist in ignoring its existence. Fact 4: Did read the other posts ?? only your ??drivel?? and MMR's were in any way offensive. Fact 5-6: Weak and not worth it Fact 7: You obviously have no real ability to provide a glimpse, or even a fleeting squint, into the organization where I currently work, in as much as your ??facts?? are so erroneous (yes, it??s a word), outdated and smack so loudly of a persecution complex that you have actually undermined your own credibility. Fact 8: The NY office, at one time, was being run by the wrong guy. That??s precisely why our management removed him. Just for informational purposes for the others on this board with an actual interest in Adjoined - we are not structured by geography but rather by practice (and have been so for a while) so that rap is quite dated as well. Fact 9: My favorite one of all. This tired diatribe is truly your most ludicrous. Adjoined is a private company and neither you, nor anyone else would have the ability to assert or dispute organic vs. acquired growth numbers (Except when those numbers are released by the company as they were to Kennedy Research - as stated, by the way, in another recent posting to this board) Fact 10 ?? I had trouble keeping track of who was slamming who between you and MMR, he slammed the CEO and CSO, you slammed the CFO??s track record and the need for a general counsel (a female officer of which you assert we have none), you did not even know who our COO was, and you called our CTO a ??deposed Officer?? (that is before you stood corrected yet again). Understand, it was very hard to keep track of who was assigned to bash whom between you and MMR - and therein lay the confusion. Fact 11: If I were able to look into your eyes ?? I certainly would see the truth. In fact, I would probably call you Chicago Jane and Country Bob. Need I say more? As I understand it, the bitter truth in all this wasted energy is that you both were terminated for lack of performance. End of story. And a final thought for you, Chicago Jane and Country Bob- If you have found work, for god??s sake, hang onto it!
