Re:Marissa Mayer has been on a shopping spree, but is there ... by pavs on Friday July 05, 2013 @05:56AM (#5994189)
Mayer brought in couple of high level Google execs/managers in the last 12 months for exactly what you are talking about;

Here are three I can remember (there might be others I don't know):

Andrew Schulte as chief of Staff: http://hothardware.com/News/Yahoo-Chief-Marissa-Mayer-Poache...

Dylan Casey senior director in the platform organization: http://searchengineland.com/former-google-product-manager-go...

de Castro as chief operating officer: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000087239639044435400457805...

Also I replied else where how the Yahoo working environment changed since Mayer joined:

At the end of day we will just have to wait and see how Mayer's strategy pans out. At least from what I can see she is taking things to the right direction.
