Carat president Scott Sorokin found himself explaining to AdAge his version of a major company restructuring for the struggling ad firm, which focuses on Internet and interactive TV advertising. Carat clients have included Adidas, Hyundai, Microsoft and Ofoto. Yes, the downsizing will affect Carat's San Francisco office on Brannan near 4th. How do we know? Because someone accidentally sent PowerPoint and Word attachments meant for upper management to the entire company.
