Pros

None- Except for the few survivors that received huge incentives to stay and talk the talk and walk the walk.

Cons

CEO just led a huge WW layoff as part of his deal to sell to AVGO. Word is that over 700 people are gone... out of a prior total of ~1,100. Some departments are down 80-90%. Costa Mesa, corporate headquarters facility up for sale. Closed Roseville and other sites. No possibility of future R&D. They have lost critical mass and too many key engineers.

Pros

The co-workers at Emulex included informed, effective professionals who were friendly and collaborative. Good working conditions.

Cons

Most of what might be considered downsides were just SOP: changes, deadlines, far-flung information, but it kept us busy and productive.
