Sprint reshuffles networks team: Saw promoted, Elfman and Azzi to leave company

[milan03]

Thought this could be very interesting: http://www.fiercewireless.com/story/sprint-reshuffles-networks-team-saw-promoted-elfman-and-azzi-leave-company/2014-03-06

 

Personally, I think this could be great news for Sprint and all of Sprint's subscribers.

I like it. New blood, although Saw is a Clearwire leftover!

if he had anything to do with clearwires site spacing in my area then he's a welcomed clearwire leftover lol

Probably a good thing. Clear's problem was finances, not a network issue. Hopefully he'll do well as Chief Network Officer.

Next step... fire Ericsson!

Next step... fire Ericsson!

 

Especially as outsourced Network Management.  Bring back the good workers as Sprint employees and fund them appropriately!

I agree it seems you can almost always see a Vzw or AT&T vehicle where ever you go at tower site or heading out some where, but I have yet to see one Sprint or T-mobile vehicle in my life!

I think this confirms that there is some disappointment with the progress on NV. Hopefully the new blood can exceed the expectation set for 2.6 or at the least meet sprint's stated commitments.

Is it a good thing that the market I live in is a Samsung then? lol 

[bcltoys]

Alcatel-lucent should get the boot too. Hell they all should get the boot.

Agreed.. I don't think I have ever seen a Truck or van marked with Sprint. Would be cool to see one day.

I am sure they have them though.... One thing with Sprint and this includes stores they just dont have the small "road side" stores like the big two have (they have stand alone stores not just in malls for example).  I know its costly but its proven the more your "seen" the better chance the business will succeeded.

There aren't really Sprint trucks.  Sprint has outsourced its network maintenance to Ericsson.  You most likely see Ericsson trucks going around to Sprint sites.

I've seen one work van with T-Mobile logos ways back during the Catherine Zeta Jones days. Never seen a Sprint vehicle, but I have seen a Clearwire one.

I have seen a truck marked with Sprint. It was last summer on the interstate.

Very uncommon.  As it would have to be a Sprint employee outside of their network management.  Not many Sprint logo'd fleet vehicles out there.

I haven't seen another. I remember thinking that's weird.

[WiWavelength]

Elfman and Azzi got the "Saw."

I've seen them!

 

(may or may not have been stalking the Sprint campus at the time....)

I guess Son is not going to sit quietly as a team tells him "we cant do this any faster because...". New Sprint!! Cant wait to hear what he has in store for the public event next week.

Masa son is going to melt down a few gold bars and do some persuasion.

May not be trucks, but all district managers, Indirect account executives, and Store IT people drive gray sprint ford SUVs with sprint logos.

Think the one I seen was white if memory serves right.

Callled Azzi getting the boot a month back. Glad it actually happened.
