Reorganization = layoffs

There were no layoffs. A reorg was announced but no job loss. Such a naive stance. Do you know of one reorganization that was not either based on getting rid of a bunch of employees or that was not followed by huge layoffs? It's their sole purpose... — read more

Things have to change

There are WAY too many storage specialists tripping over themselves in the sales org. Very highly paid and only working their own tiny silo, too many lines of storage. Competing for the same bids and same shrinking pie, but always unavailable to get... — read more

A lot of people in QA across the board are being "relieved of their duties". Few large federal customers [2 in US, 1 in Canada] are not renewing data center storage, software and implementation / operation services. Don't look good, IMO.

I hate QBRs, really hate them!

It is amazing to see how low the numbers are coming out of the QBRs. Everyone's numbers are way down compared to last year. The pressure from management is almost unbearable. Someone is definitely going to get cut very soon. This really s---s!

Big layoffs coming

As if the layoffs over the last two years was not enough there are confirmed discussions of another 10% layoff something for early 2018. The company is not measuring up to expectations so the working staff will pay the price.
