Slightly harsh and something I wouldnt of expected at that level.

Wonder who will replace her, Yahoo haven't been going anywhere for ages now... Google just mop the floor with them.

I guess this kinda ties in with the pay gap rising thread.

Paid a lot of money for "performance" and didn't really have much of an impact on Yahoo share price. In fact it went up when she was sacked. Unless keeping it from tanking was a feat in itself, which I imagine it might well of been given all the infighting they had over her tenure.
