A Great I-Am-No-Longer-With-Google Gesture From Mayer

Although she was known to use the iPhone also while at Google. The official pretext? I need to study the competition. Competition my _______.


Marissa Mayer Just Gave Every Yahoo Employee An iPhone 5
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..... "Yahoo! Smart Phones, Smart Fun!" .... Yahoo employees will have a choice of phones: iPhone 5, Samsung Galaxy S3, HTC One X, HTC EVO 4G LTE, or Nokia Lumia 920. .... Yahoo is also going to pay its employees data and phone bills.... the idea is for Yahoo employees to use the phones that Yahoo users are using. .... The program will cost Yahoo a few million dollars .... a more informed and motivated workforce.
I think she also got some billions from the Alibaba sale. And she is flaunting it. Paying your employees' phone bills? Now that's original. I have not heard Google do that.
