Rigorous is true but also lacking insight, vision, or a great global goal for the work that Google does that does not make headlines. Behaves poorly towards those who are lower than she is. Snappish.

Ruth brought serious rigor to Alphabet's finances. Wall Street respects her and the numbers speak for themselves.

Would work again: Yes
