Good assessment. I'm looking it as this way. New staff that feels confident they do not need a existing staff member to help for the future. While it's not great to lose your job, I'm OK with Ash brining in his own guy to build new relationships. And let's be honest, Barthel may have had connections but he was hired because he personally trained Rashan Gary, Walker and JG and look at how those relationships panned out. Not saying he was the reason they all went elsewhere but it clearly didn't help. We don't need sympathy top 5 from these kids. I'm trusting with what Ash has planned on the banks.
I saw that Caltury was brought in as the head of recruiting. But I was hoping EJ could've stayed on in support.
If I was taking over a team or a company I would no go with friends and family…I'd go with who's available to me that offers us the greatest chance for success.
You go into business with people you trust.
Happy New Year. Experienced the same things over the years as outside consultant for many large companies. Years of experience and knowledge of business means zero when new person in charge wants to hire their buddies and/or people they are comfortable with. It's life. Agree with Zap too--one downside of hiring friends and neighbors is if they fail and you have to make tough decisions, you have to consider firing your friend or neighbor. Had to do this once on a project many years ago and it was very unpleasant.
Bet Partridge tries to get him, which would suck
Absent any facts, reading between the lines of twitter comments and various news articles, that's my guess.
I would think it depends on how the contract was written. If I had to guess, I'd guess that if a person is offered a different role, but with the same pay, that not taking that role means you forfeit any further pay. It's the same as quitting a job.
