It would seem that there is a lot of talent at Vurv that is ripe for the picking... Taleo surely will not be able to absorb the full Vurv staff. Has SuccessFactors made a raid... will they make a raid? This would seem like an excellent opportunity to execute on the "Attack at the top of the hill". Thanks, Jim S.

Jack in GE said about the 4E's , it is applicable during the good times and bad time too. I have a question , Say Mr A is performing exceedingly well during the boom time when the recession sets in Mr A's performance/productivity goes down, economic conditions may be one of the reasons or, what should the management do with Mr A . 1.Give him Pink Slip. 2.Go for a pay cut , only give the fixed freezes the variable. 3. Shift him to a different process/sections or do a job enrichment or enlargement? If the first option is taken it can be dangerous he will be picked up immediately by a competitor and can pose tremendous problem from the existing employers. In the case of Second Option Mr A may start grumblimg.May leave on his own. In the third case he may be a misfit. What is your answer, please reply.
