Talent War 2011


The Siren Sound


As I have noted on the ever shifting employee networks of Silicon Valley given its "at-will" employment contract. The first public salvo came from Google who offered an across the board salary increase in 2011. There are a analyses on the latest winners and losers of the latest "Talent Wars."

Not surprisingly, Apple, Facebook, and Google are all doing well, relatively speaking. The major casualty of the current phase is Yahoo who is losing a bit of its luster lately. The interesting winner is Twitter who, despite the persistent criticism of its lack of business model, is getting a lot of people to join.
