I left Monday on the 29/07/2002. At that moment I had no idea IBM was buying the company but I'm glad I left before. Anyway I didn't like the name at all. Who wants to work for a company called Monday?

There's a Dutch company called Maandag (Monday) now. What a RIP off...

I thought it was alright. Every Monday is a fresh start, right? That's what the brand was trying to impart to the company, a notion of clear thinking and fresh perspective.
I think they could have made it work.

Although I admire the impact and gutsiness of it, its all a bit clever (or not) for your average person. Not to be taken seriously but for 75 million quid its should be.

Ah, "Monday"... the obvious committee-think "brand" that was held in derision by all since the very moment it was introduced. It makes an eloquent case for the on-sight execution of anyone fancying themselves a "brand consultant".

This is fatuous designer-speak at its worst. And it is more evidence of the crisis of confidence that has struck the business community. After the Enron meltdown and dotcom collapses, the basic foundations and architecture of the business and financial world are looking shaky. No wonder everybody wants a name change or a makeover.
Everyone is trying to be global, abstract, rootless, mysterious. Fewer and fewer businesses possess the self-confidence to stick up for their existing name and reputation. Their corporate monikers disguise the nature of what they do.
Today businesses sell experience, entertainment and pleasure, not products. Monday's consultants aren't going to come round and find efficiency savings, suggest restructurings or anything horrible like that; oh no, they are coming round with doughnuts and hot coffee.

Laten we eerlijk zijn:
Als dit een logo is mogen we blij zijn dat hij gestorven is.

Monday was the butt-end of many consulting jokes... Consulting companies distancing themselves from their corrupt accounting bretheren... Accenture, BearingPoint, etc.

Read all about it in the book 'Logo R.I.P.'... "the shortest lived rebrand in history".

Here is a real case of stragedy/marketing driven design bullshit - I'm sure the proposal was sold with lots of 'blah, blah' and then the logotype design was an afterthought.

So it wasn't a logotype, it was all in the name! Well...
'Monday' is global in neither a linguistical, nor cultural sense and a search for it in Google reveals 27,700,00 results.
Dead and should be forgotten!

This was another example of senior management making a silly decision - remember the story of the Emperor's new clothes? Why didn't someone say something. I'm glad it's gone!

I might've have worked for Monday, but I live for Friday!

Quite stunning in it's brilliant incompetance. What on earth were they thinking of - hot doughnuts and coffee ? Not only was the name poor, the associated brand image they tried to conjour was nothing short of bad. I was so glad I worked with the non-consulting arm of the firm.

A brave solution in a grey world. 'Monday:' R.I.P.
