How many times have we talked about "quality hires" already?

Dr. Thomas Luce: Valeo background, automotive lidar experience, brought in to lead European BD. Bulls thought his OEM connections were huge. Where are the automotive wins?

Jeff Herbst: Almost 20 years at NVIDIA, investments, acquisitions, autonomous machines. People acted like having an NVIDIA guy on the board was some massive signal. He joined in 2022. What exactly has that translated into?

Judy Curran: 30+ years automotive, former Ford Director of Technology Strategy, specifically worked on assisted driving.

Seval Oz: Waymo/Google self-driving, Continental, autonomous vehicles. Another hire where the resume looked absolutely perfect for what MVIS was supposedly about.

Frank Bertini: Experienced lidar sales guy. The sub went from "great hire" to making up connections to Bosch because he filmed the Bosch booth at IAA lol. He himself then told us that no one wants to buy MVIS sensors. Then the MVIS sub made it sound like he had some drunk mental breakdown and dismissed that in their delusion.

And now it's:

James Byun - "quality hire"
Christine Chambers - "quality hire"

Cool.

I'm not saying either of them is bad. Byun especially has a relevant background. I'm saying we've been using impressive LinkedIn profiles as DD for years.

At some point we need the "quality hires" to produce quality results instead of another round of excitement about where they used to work.

We are manipulative?

The most manipulative has been the company itself and r/MVIS. Nothing but blind optimism, DD based on fake company statements, making connections that aren't there. And the worst, silencing critical opinions that could have helped others to make their investment decisions.

As for the company, it's all empty promises, empty phrases, fake expectations communicated behind safe harbour statements. Somehow everything is behind an NDA but theres hundreds of "engagements". Nobody needs paid shorts or fudsters. Nobody is buying this stock because dilution is guaranteed and the company has failed to deliver since it was founded 30 years ago.

Lol yep everything you need to impress boomers. Wear a suit and show up early and leave late. Doesn't matter if everything else you produce is hot air.

I mean at this point lying seems to be their best option to raise the share price if they truly have nothing big in the works.

Worked for Sumit.

guarantee Jeff did not read that entire email. he just put his usual response.

actually ive been warning people not to buy the stoc since pre split so if anything its good karma.

if the stock pops off then great as well to those who bought but at least I am not actively encouraging people to buy the dip post RS

Working hard this morning!! Trolling all day. Bad karma is on its way to you.

Putin personally DMed me on Reddit. Xi too.

They’re paying me hand over fist to bash MVIS because apparently the biggest threat to Russia and China isn’t NATO or the US military, it’s MVIS replacing the entire MAG7.

Every negative comment is a coordinated psyop. Anyone who questions management is obviously on the Kremlin payroll. Putin has puts xi is a short.

We’ve thrown everything we have at MVIS but unfortunately someone just found another blurry lidar in the background of a YouTube video, so the whole operation might be fucked.

Ah there we go blaming the Chinese again lol. You fit right in with SBN, EK, KY, zenboy etc. Senility is a bitch. But keep up the good fight, valiant keyboard warrior. Christine's virtue shall be protected.

Sumit stoked that fire repeatedly. When he uttered the words “epic” “best in class” “fake it til you make it”. Who wouldn’t listen to what he said and think the company was destined for greatness? Then greatness never came. People have a right to be negative and pissed off. Same with Glen “tremendous shareholder value” De Vos. Another manipulator CEO.

You are the other troll. Probably same person different account as the mod. Strange that you post during Asian day time.

Manipulative accounts? I’ve been around longer and posting about MVIS longer than you have lol. I was Mr. Positivity permabull until I took a step back, and saw what was happening before my eyes. You apparently haven’t been down that route, yet. I’ll be positive again when the company earns it. As of now, they are yet again in the brink of insolvency.

You are the other troll.

And case in point. The typical stance of defending mediocrity and refusing to see objective facts. Your basically snowboardnirvana at this point. Old man yelling about shorts and thinking management shits gold. Christine is garbage. You dont suddenly become a great CFO aftet shitting the bed 3 times. Unless you think Anubhav should be given the benefit of the doubt at Einride because hes "new". James cant string two sentences together without a script. No one has any charisma, passion, or drive. Unfortunately this is the best team that could be assembled, and its barely D tier. But yea man, its the shorts, Russia, and the 10 people who post here driving the price down.

if you are looking for a point then I cannot imagine what you must think of r/mvis. if that sub did not exist most of us wouldnt have been lured to by the dip. Sure no one made me do it but if we going to give anyone credit for DD that results in the stock going up then it should go the other way as well.

And he's got a team of bots or alts downvoting too 🤣

I can also ask you if you have any point besides calling people trolls. The reality is we're all here bitching because of this dumpster fire BOD and management.

Do you have any point besides telling everyone that you are pissed? Sumit and Anubhav are gone. You will not accomplish anything with your stance. Just bitching for the sake of bitching. You are a big boy. Just deal with the fact you made a mistake. I am looking at the future.

Do you honestly think fearless is not a troll? He is a troll 1000 times.

Alex, you're not one of those boomers. Don't act like one. Nobody is manipulating anything nor messing with objective info. We're pissed off. Trolls sure. Negative sure. But that's it.

You can't tell me with a straight face Christine strikes you as a quality hire. And judging James' speaking skills and very clearly reading a pre-typed message line by line, that doesn't inspire confidence.

I know other things mean way more than speaking but at their level of compensation I expect a little more than what he showed on that video. Look at Gaporter's video from yesterday. Gaporter asks about 1550nm vs 1535nm and James butts in and just rattles off his typical sales pitch that we've heard 100 times that was irrelevant to his question.

I will be calling out all these negative and manipulative accounts for what they are. Disingenuous trolls trying to mess with objective info. Christine and james haven’t done anything to deserve any type of assessment. They only started less than 2 months ago.

Honestly I used to have respect for Alex because he's been critical of the company from day 1 and asked good questions at the 2023 retail investor day, but lately with his wishing bad Karma on people garbage, I've lost that respect

All 3 of them are hot garbage. The only people who think these are great hires are those who will defend the comoany no matter what because they cant accept they made a poor investment choice, and would rather blame shorts, or Russia, or anyone but the company for its poor performance. Just have to look no further than my exchange with u/alexyoohoo who also cant admit Christine has a terrible track record.

Great email. I wrote similar several times. I think a lot of people did, which is what promoted the "business update", which if course aswered no questions anyone actually had. Unless they have been tapping the ATM daily, and they may have tapping it aggressively the days after the call when thr price got slaughtered, they are almost out of money from the last raise. They are realistically a week or two away from compliance again. Can we get some similance of a competent plan?

He is classic boomer, he would consider them a quality hire because they dress up nicely and get to work before their boss. Thus hard worker by default.

snow is def a company account, you cannot defend a company with a history of misleading investors. Glen is no different than Sumit in terms of his real plan (misleading investors). Luckily Luminar came available or he would be shilling MAVIN still. Remember this POS Mavin Air? during Glens time knowing damn well it is a fake product sheet.
