Re:>>Outside of the $$$$$$$$$$ Maxim is a pit to work in.<< A buddy of mine has been working there for a long time. He said that the place is very results oriented but he has enjoyed working there. Of course this is just one data point, but it can't be all bad. JF

that is the worst message i have ever seen. "outside of the $$$$$$$, the place is a pit", what are you doing on this URL, aren't you trying to make money.... you need to do some serious thinking and retract that statement for the masses.... leaders are not meant to be loved...especially when they make good product and create millionaires...

sorry, but the Fullagars and the Binghams etc. are all too old, rich and thus happy. All of them hated Gifford's guts from day one, but the fat bank accounts do indeed help. A classic case of love/hate, when the pecuniary circumstances make that juxtaposition pathetic. Did you know, by the way, who got Ray Stata (ADI) into the monolithic biz? Yes, that was John himself. Ray hates him for that, thus forgot it, which again made Jack jumpy. Who initiated AMD? Sanders?? No, all wrong, that was - Jack again... Give him credit for creativity and more, but does his people like him more for that? Hey, he hardly likes himself. AMD, Maxim, ADI's move away from the small boxes, Avocados and automated Baseball ball production machines - sure Jack is the expert. He is not too bad, right?
