@Ben_Fred@McGrawMilhaven The irony here is Disney was forced to sell the FOX regional sports networks because of anti-competition concerns. Now Sinclair is holding the networks hostage – and isn't even selling us a steaming service option. Turned out to be great for consumers...
Lately I’ve been reflecting on all the amazing memories @secondstreet. There were lots of photo booths, conferences, and company week shenanigans (and some work too haha) with amazing colleagues. So cheers to everyone who was part of the journey!
The past few weeks have been bittersweet. @secondstreet, the company where I started my career as an intern 6+ years ago, was acquired by @UplandSoftware based out of Austin, TX. I'm so proud of what we built and can't wait to see what comes next.
I'm honestly so spoiled that my first job out of school was working for two co-founders like Matt Coen and Doug Villhard.
Check out this great write-up on Doug in the @stlouisbiz:
We're so proud of the work the Second Street team does not just at work, but also in our community.
This week, our co-founder, Doug Villhard, was recognized for all the work he does in St. Louis. Learn more: https://t.co/4OaTIrTLHz
Sunday afternoon Bears Twitter is quickly becoming my favorite. Love seeing the Chase Daniel mentions.
Matt Nagy, it might be time to make the switch. #MIZ
Hiring Tip: When writing a job description, include an industry-relevant book as suggested reading. It turns interviews into impromptu book club meetings.
