Pros
Patch was AMAZING under AOL's leadership. They knew the people who worked for the company is what made it special.
Cons
It speaks to a company when their first act of business is to let go of 75% of the staff. And to add insult to injury for those of us who were on the call after lay off's occurred, having Hale's leadership laugh to themselves and crack jokes about "finally being a profitable company" and having their managers re-enforce that logic to the staff was ridiculous. Hale and his group have NO idea what made Patch special. They only care about bottom line, not the people. They had amazing people quit the company and rather than find out what they could've done better, they decided to ignore the situation.
