Is Anyone Despairing Trying to FInd a Job Outside of Juniper?
We know best of the best have already left (really serious brain drain witnessed). We know their mighty brains have found jobs at great companies with at least double pay. My friend made me reflect by saying that those who remain is because... — read more

In January? Or later?
RR Out
Word on the street from some very credible people is RR is out early in the new year. Should take KM with him as he walks out the door. This will hopefully bring some new blood into the company and renewed vision. MJGA
Cisco figured it out > Silicon One for Whitebox

After an amazing two and half years at Juniper Networks, I am going back to Google as the VP and Head of Global Networking. I am really proud of what team Juniper has achieved in the last few years: Gartner leadership quadrant for datacenter... — read more
The writing is on the wall
Here is the fundamental problem of all the legacy networking companies. The workload is moving out of the enterprise and into the cloud. The cloud titans are building their own whitebox hardware. They aren't interested to pay Cisco, Juniper, Arista... — read more
Juniper in 2020 ?

One bad hire after another for Juniper
What is the board thinking letting the RR loser choose the CEO Staff loser parade?? Three sales leaders in last year or so, CTO, his next to last HR pick, his former boss...nothing is actually helping.
Mental Paralysis
the “do nothing” juniper executives will have to continue to pretend to work for a few more years before their retirement, since they want to cash in their RSUs
BK LOL
Glad he’s out. He was the wrong guy for the job. Knew nothing about hardware, thought the whole world was google and had as much charisma as a pile of wet laundry. RR can sure pick the hires. The best people!
RR and leadership
STEP DOWN. The Company Voice Survey says it all!

Everyone is Growing, Taking Marketshare and Innovating
Cisco is up, Ciena is up, Arista is up and Juniper is down year over year. Why is that?
IT outsourcing to IBM
How is that working out? At all other places, it has been an epic disaster. Is it turning out the same at Juniper?
When is the next round of layoff happening
I had an 1:1 scheduled with my manager tomorrow. He has been saying that he will schedule one and finally he scheduled on today. Is there a plan for one round of layoff this month? I am new to Juniper, hence not much idea about it. He also... — read more
This sums it all up...
Juniper is a growth company that hasn't grown in 2 years. Of course layoffs will continue. The only way Juniper remains profitable is by cutting wages. https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/JNPR/juniper-networks/revenue

Read about the implosion that's going on at WeWork. It won't make it to IPO. It's going the way of the Dodo.
MIST is Toxic
The acquisition of MIST is being referred to as toxic. The management from mist has complete seller's remorse. It's very much a them vs. us mindset. This acquisition will go on the books as yet another disappointment by Juniper CEO staff.
CTO & CPO are not playing nice
Folks, there's some new well, not so new drama in the ivory tower. The CTO & CPO are at war with each other, can't come to an agreement on product strategy. Seeing the 2 of them go at it, is like watching a scene in game of thrones or more like the... — read more
