Apple in Russia, it seems, are waiting for a big change. The Russian office of the apple company headed by Apple hater and former Microsoft employee, said CNews. It should be noted that the post of head of representation was empty at the end of 2009, when Apple left Valery Lanovenko also, incidentally, a former Microsoft employee.
Alex Badaev, the new head of the Russian representative, came to Apple directly from Microsoft. There, he was the chief of the department for the promotion of entertainment hardware and software platforms. In fact, responsible for the promotion of XBOX in Russia. In Microsoft's Badaev worked long enough, he practically stood at the origins of representation. This was announced by President of Microsoft Russia, Nikolai Pryanishnikov. His departure Badaev explained new prospects in another company.
Perhaps, in the promotion and development of business and professional Badaev, but in their own circles, he is known as an ardent hater of Apple products. Cnews quoted the current head of «Microsoft Russia" Nikolay Pryanishnikova:
"Meeting the people in the elevator with the iPhone, he [Alex Badaev] told them about his shortcomings, and I have called for tough demand to cease the use of any devices from Apple in the office"
Such an appointment with such a negative attitude to almost the main Apple products at least seems inconsistent and strange.
We can only watch, as will now work the Russian representation of the company, to realize that it bears hiring Alexei Badaeva. In the memory, by the way, vslyvaet recent history with Mark Peypermasterom (Mark Papermaster). He worked for a while Apple's vice-president and then was fired because of his "incompatible with the culture of Apple» (broader cultural incompatibility).
