Pros

The company now has a strong product portfolio (data services, performance, scale out).

Management truly cares about employees, and people are encouraged to do the right things.

It's not overly heavy on processes; it strives for agility.

It strives to be a best place to work by giving everyone opportunities to contribute.

The company is improving its operational efficiency, which should help us grow our bottom line (a long-time criticism of the company).

Cons

Too many layoffs and not enough stability.

The company grew fast over the last several years and struggles to deal with the challenges of a 10,000+ employee company that they didn't have to worry about when the company size was 5,000 and growing.

Advice to Management

Get revenues up.
