Technology CEOs Report Card

December 18, 2011 in Daily Bulletin

Glassdoor.com produces an annual “Naughty and Nice” list for technology CEOs. Their most recent list had some interesting BLEHS

  • Despite an eventful year where Ballmer acquired Skype, launched the Mango update for Windows Phone, previewed Windows 8, and saw sales of the Xbox reach new highs, his approval ratings fell from 49% to 35%.
  • After a disastrous year where Netflix CEO Reed Hastings announced and then retracted several new initiatives such as Qwikster, and ended up sending an email to all Netflix subscribers apologizing for the confusion, his ratings fell from 79% to 61%.
  • Facebook, Google and Apple were rated as some of the best places to work in technology.
