Thread regarding Citrix Systems Inc. layoffs

DH vs. MT vs. KT

MT took the company from 50M to 2B in revenue. Bold decisions to buy Netscaler, GoToMeeting, XenSource, Zenprise to expand business in different areas. Made mistakes but never blamed anyone for them. Infused respect and culture in the organization.

KT took a fight with the Elliott mafia. Streamlined the organization. Accelerated the cloud journey. Didn't bad-mouth Citrix board even after he has thrown out

DH: cutting costs. closing offices. moving jobs to india and china. Buying all the b---s--- coming from engineering leaders and PJ-Tough. Giving blo--obs to the board to make his annual comp. Selling crap to customers without noticing the actual usage data. Dying Microsoft relationship. Fighting startups with lawsuits. Giving excuses for lousy cloud adoption. Zero product contribution.

Let's compare KT and DH because Mark is in a different league.

DH is using his skills to improve margins every quarter. He doesn’t know what to do with the product. He has to trust PJ.

PJ and JR are struggling but making good money. Why would they tell DH to press the panic button?

Microsoft is going to compete. Nutanix is going to compete. Vmware is kicking a-- in the field. Amazon already owns 10% of the market. All workloads will go to cloud so XenServer is useless. Netscaler is losing mindshare.

It’s not looking good for Citrix.

KT walked away with 60+ million in cash and stocks for 18 months worth of work. Thats pretty damn successful to me.

They promoted their CFO to the CEO role, they also have no CIO or real security leader.

Maybe DH should check reviews on Glassdoor. The company is disintegrating and he is not in touch with the reality.

DH is doing his job just fine: Extract as much money as possible.

At least that is going to be successful, unlike KT's "try to flog hugely expensive inappropriate semi-functional cloud solutions to Corporations that know how to do math" and "by the way I'm really here to sell Citrix to Microsoft cheap like the Nokia Elopalypse."

Everybody has a plan, until they are punched in the face!

DH has the hardest job to maintain the ship.

DH days are numbered or the company is going under. DH would sell his own mother for bed wetting service if he could make a buck on it. The cretin has no morals or scruples.

But he is doing whatever the Elliott Mafia tells him to do . The guy is a creep

DH can’t last long. The horrible product quality and cloud struggle will get exposed with a quarter miss sooner or later
