Another Oracle CFO Bounced Quickly

from the not-a-good-sign dept

Generally speaking, a parade of CFOs bailing out on a company indicates something bad is happening. So, it's probably raising quite a few eyebrows that former Microsoft CFO Greg Maffei bailed out on his Oracle job after just four months, following the previous CFO who made it a whopping nine months. Of course, another explanation might be more obvious: many, many executives seem to not work well with Larry Ellison -- and when structured in a setup with multiple "co-presidents," perhaps it isn't that surprising that someone was the odd man out pretty quickly.
