Pros

Quality products. Dedicated to the medium and large business segment of the marketplace. Wekk known reputation. Global market presence. Recently acquired Nortel, so opportunities have increased.

Cons

Focus on the needs and requirements of the small business segment (<50 users) is fading. Limited career advancement opportunities from within the organisation. Would rather hire from the outside marketplace than promote from within.

Pros

The company used to care about customers, but they removed all the sales people who actually visited and consulted with customers to save travel cost.

Cons

The company's newest CEO, Patrick, only cares about getting back to a Cybersecurity company as fast as possible. Can't sell the company fast enough, but buyers can't get past due diligence periods.
