Pros

Opportunity to learn new technologies Some agility in development and go-to-market processes Solid technical management team Very good fitness facility in Salem, NH office

Cons

Not influential enough to drive standards or create markets Free soda and snacks make us fat (or were we already fat?) Only moderate growth in organization means only moderate number of career growth opportunitities

Pros

Vacation, Health, Telecommuting, during the Enterasys years things were great.

Cons

CLI on the ExOS product is horrible! 401k matching, Enterasys had class and vision which is now lacking post-merger.

Pros

Very tight knit teams (laterally, not vertically) Best people are line management or mid management and downward Decent opportunities because everyone is leaving Compensation isn't bad if you fight for it. because they are having retention problems, you can probably negotiate a good package.

Cons

Once you are in, you are a cog in the machine, they don't value their employees Treated as a number. No culture Unpredictability, some employees work/live i fear of getting fired/mgmt Upper management doesn't listen. They may say they do, but they don't actually do anything, so it's like talking to a brick wall.
