Unfortunately he did not bargain for how backwards and non-visionary TW's execs were and was no where near savvy enough to compete with them.
For the most part the company has been good to me for well over a decade (and almost half my life
), but for a long time i've been unhappy with where the company was going and it's lack of any clue how to fix itself. I do not regret my time there, but it's long since time that I move on and find new challenges.
And I feel sorry for many of the people I now leave behind as things always go further downhill after the layoffs
I know it all sounds sappy but that's how I feel about it all
Now to find a Mac programming job with no real experience
