Pros

Growing Observability business, an opportunity to grow in the networking business.

Cons

Uncertainty with the acquisition. The CEO recently left, as well as the Chief Product Officer, which affects morale and causes constant change of teams.

Some products do overlap, and it creates uncertainty with customers who have been told to build Cisco products pre-acquisition and are now asked to buy Splunk products post-acquisition.

Advice to Management

Clearer communication is essential as the acquisition is happening very fast for a company this size.
