December 11, 2012 at 8:05 pmThis has to be the greatest news that IATA has ever heard since its beginning. I for one have no respect for this coward who has destroyed so many lives. Now, it’s time for his supporters to exit IATA.
We need another article once the trench of senior management layoffs are announced.

December 18, 2012 at 4:26 pmMy postion was abolished during my maternity leave. Instead of fighting it, I head my head up high and moved on to greener pastures.

Well, I had a super A player reporting to me and she was rewarded with zero increase…I saw correspondence (by accident i was copied) which showed that they had decided who would be the A players even before the reviews had been undertaken and submitted. Obviously the recommendations were not based on any merit…what a zoo…no, jungle.
