Nissan Exec in Charge of Turnaround Departs After Two Weeks on the Job
Jun Seki is a 30-year veteran of Nissan, but he's bailing on the vice-COO position after just a fortnight.
When someone takes a job and then totally bails on it two weeks later, it can mean at least one of a few things. If the job involves delivering pizzas or working a cash register, then it likely means that said employee is a lazy teen. If that job is something more involved, like say, Vice-Chief Operating Officer for a large Japanese carmaker, then it says something else entirely.
Unfortunately for Nissan, it's going through the latter of those two scenarios right now as Jun Seki – a man who was to be instrumental in the troubled company's turnaround – announced his departure from Nissan for Nidec, according to a report published Tuesday by Reuters.
He's been with Nissan for 30 years, so why would he leave now? Well, even on the surface, Nissan has a long and challenging road ahead of it after years of declining profits and a stagnating product line that it's working feverishly to revamp. Add in the sizable poop sandwich left by both Carlos Ghosn and Hiroto Saikawa, and we can see why Seki would seek greener pastures.
However, when asked during a recent interview, he gave different reasons for his departure: "I love Nissan and I feel bad about leaving the turnaround work unfinished, but I am 58 years old, and this is an offer I could not refuse. It's probably my last chance to lead a company too."
So what exactly does Nidec do? It's a supplier to the automotive industry as well as the electronics and appliance industries. Notably, Nidec has pretty much locked up the market on the itty-bitty electric motors that spin the platters inside of traditional hard drives.
Where will this leave Nissan? Well, that's an excellent question that Nissan's board is probably feverishly asking itself right now.
Nissan didn't immediately respond to Roadshow's request for comment.

==Amazon executive was killed after colliding with a van delivering the company's packages, report reveals=
The former Amazon executive Joy Covey was killed after colliding with a van delivering Amazon packages, according to an explosive investigation into the company's logistics network by BuzzFeed News and ProPublica.
Covey was Amazon's first chief financial officer. She was riding her bike in San Francisco's South Bay suburbs in 2013 when a delivery van turned left into her path.
"I heard a scream, immediately followed by a crash," the van's driver testified, according to the report.
Covey, who was 50 years old and had a young son, was killed.
Covey's collision with a delivery van was previously reported, but the BuzzFeed News-ProPublica report revealed for the first time on Monday that the van was carrying Amazon packages.
The driver was a subcontractor for OnTrac, which Amazon was employing at the time to deliver packages, according to the report.
Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos spoke at Covey's memorial service and choked up as he shared a memory of her. But inside Amazon's logistics ranks, senior managers "regarded the death as just another traffic accident," the report said, citing three people familiar with the conversations.
The details of Covey's death emerged as Amazon has come under scrutiny over the impact of its growing delivery network following investigations by Business Insider, BuzzFeed News, and The New York Times, among others.
Amazon has said safety is a top priority.
Amazon did not immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment. But in a statement to BuzzFeed News and ProPublica, the company called the new report an "attempt to push a preconceived narrative that is simply untrue. Nothing is more important to us than safety."
