JD。 Great changes have taken place in the management of COM: high-level executives have left their posts, and Liu He is angry and helpless.

Liu He had a rough journey and almost died on the road to starting a business several times. However, after a rough period, they finally reached the second position of domestic e-commerce. In ChuangJD.COM, a biography authorized by Liu Company, Liu's thoughts are recorded. "An egg is reborn when it is broken from the inside out, and it is broken when it is broken from the outside." In terms of personnel, Liu is very wary of "rust" talents, and thinks that if the company has such people, it must be "killed" immediately, because the existence of "rust" is often more harmful than people with poor ability.

Liu's so-called "rust-type" talents, that is, people whose personal business ability is very prominent, but whose values are inconsistent with corporate culture, have been constantly reporting layoffs since the beginning of the Internet cold wave last year, and their actions have also shocked the industry. JD.COM insiders once reported to Science and Technology News that some non-profit departments in JD.COM once laid off more than 30% of their staff, and some departments were even removed because of poor performance. After the Spring Festival this year, a new round of layoffs began in JD.COM. This time, it is said that the layoffs for the senior management team above the vice president level are as high as 10%, which means that nearly 10 senior management will be eliminated from the bottom in JD.COM during the year.

What is more noteworthy is that in a large Internet company like JD.COM, the internal relationship is extremely complicated. The longer the senior executives hold office, the deeper their participation in the department. The so-called "one hair pulls one hair and moves the whole body." JD.COM wouldn't have made such drastic changes to the management team in such a sensitive period if it wasn't a chronic disease that went deep into the bone marrow. As Liu reprimanded at the internal meeting in early March, "people are overstaffed and gangs are formed." These are eight words for the senior management team, which basically put the crux of JD out. The hills inside COM and the fragments on the table. Obviously, internal struggles and complicated personnel relations have become the shackles of JD.COM. Excessive internal friction of COM and its continuous development.

Zhang Chen, CTO who has been employed for three and a half years, announced that he will step down as CTO of the Group on June 30th due to family reasons. Four days later, Liu's old classmates and his old classmates announced their resignations. The intensive departure of two senior executives with CXO titles can hardly help but arouse people's doubts and speculations about JD.COM.

Speaking of Zhang Chen, a technical bull who has worked in Yahoo for 18 years, moved to JD.COM to be the global vice president of Yahoo, and the founder and president of Yahoo's Beijing Global R&D Center, which has made great contributions to the technological transformation of JD.COM. At the annual meeting of 20 17, Liu shouted the slogan of comprehensive transformation to technology. "Today, technology drives and supports all businesses, and it takes 12 years." Zhang Chen was undoubtedly the force that supported Liu at that time. Now, after two years, CTO Zhang Chen has made great contributions and fled abroad. In the remaining 65,438+00 years, Liu still needs someone to hold the position of CTO to realize his great ambition.

It is not difficult to find that all the major technical adjustments in JD.COM were made passively, from the initial construction of the mall by Liu himself to the high-paying employment of CTO Li Daxue to upgrade the mall in 2008. At the beginning of 20 12, JD.COM set up the CTO position for the first time, and hired Wang Yaqing, vice president of Oracle Bone Inscriptions Company, a leading global database company, as the first CTO. However, less than one year later, Wang Yaqing left for family reasons, and then the CTO position in JD.COM was vacant for three years until Zhang Chen joined in 20 15. Now, Zhang Chen and Wang Yaqing have left their jobs for family reasons, which inevitably means a historical cycle. It is understood that the CTO position in JD.COM is still vacant. JD.COM said that if the new CTO candidate is confirmed in the future, it will be announced, but I don't know if it will take another three years.

Yulong's departure is unexpected to the outside world, but it is reasonable. There is also a story about Yulong joining. It is said that Liu is a classmate of China Europe Business School. His impression of Liu is "always sitting in the back row, not very talkative, but asking good questions." At that time, JD. COM is also having a hard time, with a loss of 65.438+0.7 billion, and there are rumors of JD.COM. COM's capital chain is broken. While studying abroad to recharge, Liu is also trying to find a clean ear. Of course, while studying in Xi Zhi, Liu didn't forget to look for talents for the company. During this period, Chief Operating Officers Shen Haoyu and CMO Lan Ye were in place one after another. Yulong used to be the senior vice president, global general counsel and chief compliance officer of UT Starcom, an American listed company. I can't stand Liu's four visits and seven months' patient waiting, and finally it's autumn.

Subsequently, with the efforts of the company and Yulong, JD.COM. The talent system and staff size of COM have gradually taken shape. In a few years, from your 1.5 million employees in those years, it has gradually expanded to today's 1.7 million full-time employees, and Yulong has contributed a lot. Regarding Liu's resignation, Liu replied: "Over the years, Yu is a witness of rapid development and a promoter of change ... She offered to give way to younger managers and seek new challenges. Although I have repeatedly retained Rain, I finally decided to respect Rain's own wishes. "

Liu's implication is that what is needed now is younger managers. Facing the new challenges, JD.COM needs younger and more powerful leaders to lead 654.38+07,000 brothers to continue fighting. It's time for the heroes who have made great achievements to abdicate and make room for fresh blood.

In fact, in the face of this year's severe economic situation, JD.COM is catching up with Alibaba, and Pinduoduo is getting closer and closer. In such a tense situation, breaking the solid hills of the past and inspiring the morale of newcomers may help JD.COM break through the tight encirclement. Otherwise, the number of active users in Pinduoduo and JD.COM will increase. COM's second place in domestic e-commerce is likely to be lost.

According to people close to JD.COM, although the internal structure adjustment in JD.COM is still going on, and even the nepotism at the primary school level has been discovered, the environment for employees still working in JD.COM is generally not good this year. Even if they leave JD.COM, it is difficult to find better positions to accept them, especially now the recruitment market of BAT and TMD is not optimistic. As long as there are no such problems, JD.COM is still a better choice.
