HAPPY LANDINGS:

1. M. is settling in, with a bang:
   • “Hey Anne, things are going well, thanks for checking in.  I started at IBM last week, on Tuesday, quicker than expected.  The team is great, very welcoming and the responsibilities of the role will be very impactful for the company.  I’m already on a project and drinking from the fire hose. 
2. M. reported to Paula that, after 2 1/2 days of negotiation, he committed to his next position.  He will be the VP of Sales & Marketing for a mobile robot company.  Following an interview he had at a trade show last Tuesday, with the CEO/President, and the President of their parent company, they decided to pursue him for the position.  He teamed with Paula on negotiating salary, bonus, perks (car), and span of control and he was very happy with where it ended up! TBG Start Date: 2/5/20; New Job Start date: 3/17/20. Salary went from $180K to $215K base and added two additional depts to his role. Car allowance; up to 50% bonus; $100k shares of restricted stock; stock plan and all the other benefits. Yay, Paula!
