Juniper Networks

My colleagues were incredible, as was my manager. The work was interesting, and the compensation was above average. PTO is unlimited, and benefits are fantastic.

There are a million layers of management; it's unbelievable.

Your job is not guaranteed. I lost mine in a layoff after 11.5 years of dedication and loyalty.

The product is falling apart now, and people are leaving in droves, but I suspect the product is not high on the radar anymore for management.

There is a clear priority in India. The company has placed emphasis on hiring cheap versus hiring quality.

Two laborers in India for the cost of one US-based employee.

One in particular, we even said, "Do not hire," and they hired him anyway at a low pay position. He is the only person they kept post-layoff.

No advice, everyone is leaving.

I'm not sure what you can do at this point. Many people were so loyal to you, and you didn't even try to restructure them into other roles.

The severance was sub-par and the layoff was handled gracelessly. The manager wouldn't even look my colleague in the eyes or shake his hand, and he was an incredible employee.
