I just finished a 10 week internship at Yahoo and while I can't say much about where the company is headed strategically, I can say that it's a super exciting time to be working there :)

You mean you aren't allowed to say, or you aren't really sure?
He/she was an intern. Typically, interns are neither privy to strategy, nor are they sure of where things are headed.
I work at Yahoo!. Our interns attend weekly meetings where strategy is discussed. :)
Tactics you mean. Tactics change frequently, to align projections with actual results and market changes.

Strategy doesn't change as often, and has a longer lifespan. If your strategy needs reviewing weekly you probably don't want to disclose it.
