Pros
The world leader in flash memory produces industry-leading, high-quality products; B2B and B2C opportunities, truly global company and global perspective.

Advice to Senior Management
Why did you replace most of your executive team with leaders from the MSystems, who in some cases had no experience in the area they are expected to manage. Also, think about the message it sends to existing memebers of the marketing team feel when every single new hire in marketing comes from the same company -- Seagate.
