Re: OT: GoDaddy Isn’t the Company You Think It Is (article title)

[Sesso]

I worked there in 2006 for a year.  I made decent money but it was a stressful place to work. Sales, sales, and more sales. I learned a bit working there but mostly learned how to be a good salesman. Oh and the politics. :/

Obviously this move is market driven not coming from Bob Parsons.  If this was of Parson's principles he would have built a different company early on.  It's all fluff intended to increase market share.  That stain is going to be hard to remove.
