Pros
  • Very strong Talent suite.
  • Powerful sales machine. Able to sell vaporware better than any company I know.
Cons
  • Tremendous low morale, at least, at the San Mateo/SSF office.
  • [They are] oblivious to technical challenges. Their solution is to throw more people at difficult-to-solve problems, and often incompetent or mediocre people.
  • Difficult to hire in the San Mateo/SSF, exacerbated by the high rate of attrition.
  • As expected, projects are moving offshore to either Shanghai or Bangalore; not by choice, but by necessity.
  • The SAP acquisition only made matters worse.
Advice to Management

You have a tough road ahead. I hope you recognize it.
