I've floated in and out of Corporate America a lot over the last 30 or so years. Usually in a Middling Management spot. Instead of cars it was apartments that I was in charge of.
The first thing I would do to any property I was in charge of was to fire the maintenance staff and reorganize everything about the property. It wasn't anything I wanted to do, Corporate expected it. It's soul sucking.
(I was told by higher ups on many occasions that "we sell a box, a box you can live in" the people don't matter.)
I'm afraid that de Nycsschen's actions are going to lead to a diluted product.
An actual name on your product is not going to hurt the Cadillac "brand".
But who am I?
I'm just a Plumber in the age and income bracket that Cadillac may want to woo.

I've decided this guy is either gonna take Cadillac places it hasn't been since the early 1900s, or completely ruin the brand.
I'm not sure which yet. Right now I'm leaning towards ruin the brand though.

seriously. This CT_ naming convention is awful! I don't care if they have an actual name or just some 3 letter abbreviation randomly assigned anything is better than his nonsensical naming convention. ATS,CTS, XLS, what ever. they sound unique and have character. a CT6 or a CT3, damn that's just lame. I don't like it. I mean infinity confuses the fuck out of every one now, why is he sooo proud of that? why does he want to tank the only american premium brand left, like he tried with infinity? ok good job asshole audi works. a4,a6,a8 and all the fillers they have now. cool ok great but please stop!

If you keep trying to imitate number 1, you'll never be number 1. Innovate, and you will be number 1.
As far as I'm concerned This Crazy Kraut is Sgt. Schultz and knows nutz-ing but how to be mediocre, beige, and boring.

Crap flows downhill. In my eyes it looks like 80s GM all over again.
Cadillac should never have to see that again. It's a bunch of Executives stroking their egos off with a bunch of "managers" going Ooh! While spuge rains down on them.

No to all of the above.
I do get called an asshole a lot. I've come to accept it.

This guy has been bouncing from one position to the next. That's not really a good sign. I don't know why the hell he was brought on for Cadillac. It's not like Infiniti became a mega star under his thumb.

He impressed someone somewhere. That's all he needs.
