Pros

I love the people i work with and there is such dedication to doing the right thing for the company. My manager helps me develop and encourages the same for my people.

Cons

Still experiencing some growing pains, but overall a great place. Turnover in leadership is still a bit rocky as they try to get the right fit for the new combined company.

Pros

Work atmosphere is great. Good compensation and benefits. Used to have great culture with a lot of opportunity for growth.

Cons

Had great hopes for the company until the Enterasys acquisition. Way too many politics with clueless managers and VP's from legacy Enterasys taking over. In exchange for keeping all of the legacy Extreme executive staff, they decided to replace all of the directors and manager levels with Enterasys folks. A lot of talented individuals left the company or were laid off. Huge culture clash between East and West coast offices. Tons of nepotism from Enterasys managers keeping "their" people, and not the most qualified.
