>However, I do love the convenience, and I was impressed with the delivery person (he was right on time and he volunteered to explain the color-coding of the containers). Robert, I've been buying WebVan because I used to work with George Shaheen many years ago when I was with Andersen Consulting. I'm starting to feel I wished I never met him.:-) >George Shaheen, the 55-year-old former managing partner and CEO of Anderson Consulting, ended more than three decades of service to his firm, to head up the online grocer Webvan Inc. last year. His price: a $500,000 salary, with a $250,000 potential bonus, plus 1.25 million shares, now valued at a little more than $15 million, and options for 15 million additional shares. Webvan has actually been one of the IPO market's big disappointments, now trading below its $15 offering price. |
