Pros

The front-line people are great.

Cons

Engineering is done out of India. The engineering culture is: “Good enough is ok.” There’s no need to be the best, and then they whine when HPE does not increase market share.

C-level is more concerned about stock buybacks and manipulating the outstanding share count than letting the engineering side use the dollars to grow through best-of-breed products.

Advice to Management

Stand up to the C-level and protect the front-line sales organization. They are rock stars dealing with horrible marketing and a CEO who is in over his head.
