[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 4610408"]The new CEO came to the NC office earlier this month and didn't get many questions in person, either. Maybe because he didn't say anything worth responding to. They are still working on the IT integration (with a slight implication that something might actually happen in the next 12-18 months - it's a priority now, you see). They are working on "people management capabilities" (his words), which includes reviews and career tracks. And, of course, the ever-present focus on retention, with no indication of what that really means - bonuses? raises? changing things so you don't have to counteroffer when people quit? Why weren't these things priorities for the past 18 months?? Mostly, Ray implied that, had he been here last year, it would have all been done by now. And he implied that Paul M is focused on getting all of the inVentiv companies integrated now (as opposed to having a few dozen brands that can't talk to each other, no matter how often you hyphenate them together). Guess Paul figured out that we can't hide the cracks in the facade any longer. And we aren't being treated in a manner that makes us want to.
