Pros

Compensation is very good. Benefits are excellent. Overall allow you to do your job and not interfere on a daily basis. Some members of leadership were excellent and empowering and motivating you to succeed.

Cons

Absolute train wreck since early 2016. Ruckus acquisition was handled poorly, management teams were assigned for groups they had no interest/experience in managing, no plan on how to leverage new product line with existing. Once BroadCom acquisition was announced, things got worse as management was trying to hold on to their positions and not caring one bit about the workforce.

Pros

Some of the good people are still left.

Cons

This used to be a great place to work, lots of opportunities, and a vision to the future. Unfortunately Lloyd and his carnival crew have mismanaged the current acquisition and divestiture into the ground. Lloyd used to use the quote above all the time, and his legacy is that he took one decent company and smashed it into 10 different entities...at fire sale prices.
