That kind of “leadership” is why Yahoo is tanking.
Yahoo is garbage, and Ms. Mayer is right at home in that environment.
She’s the perfect do-as-I-say Democrat - loaded and liberal as hell.
Sounds like a real morale building executive.
Maybe her next move will be to JCPenney?
There is something about her that has always annoyed me.
Yup. Just like mail.com (AP product), I use their free e-mails too since I was in HS. But that’s the end of my support for these Odumbo ass kissers.
Her reasoning behind why she banned working from home is pretty sound (look at the linked article at the end of this story) but for her to build a private nursery for her kid in her office is pretty bold. That is not likely to go over well but something tells me she doesn’t give a rip.

Hell hath no fury like a Techie scorned. The story is a deliberate leak I’m certain. The ability to work from home is a prime reason why many people go into tech in the first place.
Also don’t tell your employees no remote work and then outsource a bunch of new tasks to Hyderabad.
Working from home is an excellent way to ruin a marriage.
You may think it is cool, but now you are in her “nest” all day long.
The first day you tell her to turn down the radio and she will just get more bitter as time goes on.
Think about it.
Typical liberal with top-down executive order mindset. A better approaach is to allow departments and directors to allow work from home on exception basis and let the managers work this out. In some areas like testing there may be little WFH. In other areas perhaps more. She has handled this poorly and clumsily. One size does not fit all.
Of course she had a nursery built into her office. She wants her kids to watch Mommy finish augering a major company right into the ground.
I once worked at home. Didn’t do squat on some days (except cleaning my garage), and produced more than I would have at the office on others. There are serious legal problems for the employers when it comes to working at home, and I’m not sure if they are ever resolved to the satisfaction of companies’ legal departments. What happens when you have an accident while “working at home”? One example.
Might be there's another reason that Marissa wants to have junior nearby ...
FYI: when she was hired as Yahoo CEO she then admitted she was pregnant.
Don’t Yahoo or Facebook. They’ll turn over your info to the regime without a warrant.
I have a friend co-worker who when they closed the office he worked in was forced to work from home and sometimes in the field. He was worked with us for years and knows many of us as friends. Though mergers and divesting are jobs have become more specialized. All he does now is remotely configures routers. He spends his summers at his cabin on Lake Tahoe. He sits on his deck that over looks the lake in his shorts and tank top wears a silly looking floppy hat. When we had a site that a wrong VLAN or something we call him to make the changes. He is good at his job and quickly helps us all the time. He has sent a pictures to his friends show us his cabin. He is also a go to person for problem solving. I think he put the silly looking hat on for the picture to taunt us.
