Anger Boils Over at Motricity as Layoffs Loom
Blog and news sites all over the Web (including the Post Intelligencer in Seattle where the Motricity headquarters could be moved) picked up the LTW story.
Some of the most intense reaction LTW received regarded whether Wuerch is a co-founder of the company. Several folks claimed he only brokered the finances that led to the merger between Pinpoint Networks (launched in Durham) and PowerbyHand, which launched in Tennessee.
We’ll not repeat here some of the comments made on the Motricity blog. But it’s painfully clear that below the skin of a company which has been widely touted as a sterling Triangle tech success story there is a burning fever.
