Good work/life balance, particularly during the pandemic.
The handling of the layoffs was disastrous. There was no rhyme or reason, and the communication during and after the layoffs was unbelievably bad. For example, Rami has yet to address the company!
Juniper built up a reputation for treating its employees fairly, then burned that reputation to the ground this week. Compensation has historically been underwhelming, but people stuck around because it was a friendly, stable environment with good work/life balance. I expect to see a massive exodus of talented people in the next few months.
Communicate with employees. Don't just follow some consultants' plan. Firing essential, high-performers without even consulting their managers was a terrible mistake and will send the company into a tailspin.
I honestly don't see any way for current leadership to regain the confidence of their workforce in the near future.
I was switched from a summer internship. The internship was a behavioral and technical interview, very short, in one day. It took 1 hour total. But this was when companies were hiring a lot; it could be different from my experience.
Phone interview followed by onsite, 5 rounds total, including lunch. People are helpful. They focus on network questions, a little algorithm and data structure. Also, if you have previous related experience, it is a big plus.
Straightforward process. The recruiter stayed in touch throughout. People are nice to talk to, and the office location is great. After the hiring manager chat, there were three technical rounds. I accepted the offer.
