New Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer just sent an email to all of Yahoo’s full time and part time employees in the US, promising them a new Apple, Samsung, Nokia, or HTC smartphone.
According to the memo, the idea is for Yahoo employees to use the phones that Yahoo users are using.
“We’d like our employees to have devices similar to our users, so we can think and work as the majority of our users do.”
That’s pretty smart. The program will cost Yahoo a few million dollars, which is pocket change for a company with annual revenues in the billions of dollars. The benefit will be a more informed and motivated workforce.
