Q1.

SAM execs meeting in London flying business class, Support execs meeting in RTP flying business class, backfills for desperately needed to support our customers, denied. (cost of these meetings could easily fund several support engineers)

Cesar sure likes to travel and take a lot of selfies. Nice post of him on LinkedIn celebrating LNY in Asia - S Korea, Japan, Taiwan, etc. Lots of travel for a company stuck at 6B for the last decade. Interesting priorities Cesar, go Microsoft!!

My manager hasn’t spoken to me about performance. Any chance I should be worried? Are PIPs the new form of layoffs outside of the sales team

How long will shareholders tolerate us not growing ? It’s been a decade. We are doing good but we need to do GREAT. CEO?

Lately it appears Pure has taken the lead over NetApp. Sorry but the CEO with the funny hat is beating What Would George Do at his own game. Agree or disagree?

Apparently there has been talks but no decisions yet. Anyone know with who?
