Yahoo Hires McKinsey to Mull Reorg, as Mayer Demands Exec Pledge to Stay (recode.net)

What a pitty having to spend millions to ask a consultant how to run your own business.


Especially when they're going to show up with a bus full of new grad MBAs and bill like crazy for each of them. A few whale charts and a huge billable later, they'll tell MM what she wants to hear and they're off to their next engagement.


Why haven't shareholders liquidated the business yet? Isn't it worth more parted out than continuing to operate?


I recall there being quite a few Yahoo employees and execs with McKinsey backgrounds. I think many of them were on previous projects that Yahoo hired them for.

If this is the case, I hope they get better results this time.
