There’s never a dull moment at Yahoo. The company is in the news daily with rumors about who will purchase it, what Marissa Mayer is up to, and it’s been like this for years. You can imagine it might affect the employees who work at Yahoo from day to day. However, according to Yahoo’s SVP of Global Operations John DeVine, that is not the case. With a redefined approach to customer care, that is directly impacting the development of Yahoo’s core products.
