Thread regarding Omnissa layoffs

It is sinking deeper and deeper...

Looks like report cards for the role play are rolling out... would be interesting to see what the aftermath would look like.

Meanwhile, management keeps sinking deeper... repeating the same rhetoric, the same threats towards employees and further ignoring customers and their feedback.

The newly hired "managers" keep managing using the same script, only to continue failing at the end because we all know, when you practice the same method the outcome remains the same. They ignore and gaslight employee concerns with an iron fist and keep repeating the same slogan which on the surface may sound the same but has the same meaning "such it up"

For those of us who have been here long, we pause and remember the folks who were the back bone of this organization, the ones who helped us become who we are, the real talent that are now gone... moved on or let go.

Do you all remember Brian Madden's post on LinkedIn a few years back when VMware sold to Broadcom? That moment when you get a glimpse of what is to come? and you realize its not good. How many of your team mates are confident in the team's direction or the overall performance and outcome of the company? It appears that everyone is just floating, hanging to see what comes next. This is what happens when there is no direction. This is what happens when you take confidence out of someone's believe in their career. You take their sense of purpose out of their routine, this is by nature and design, reinforced by society and programming.

Things wont change for the better any time soon and in my opinion any time at all... even after Omnissa is sold off. From here, there is only sinking further into the abyss. The question is, what will you do about it. Sure, many of us have been here long and we have invested plenty and now are being short changed because management is incompetent but the reality is, how much stress can you endure?

Shankar won't fire Norlin because no qualified outside person would take that job. This is a rapidly declining company. Any credible VP candidate will refuse to work for a vendor owned by KKR, due to their pitiful track record in the enterprise software market.

@OP They just replaced Brian Madden with Brian Link. Same playbook. It's comical.

When your leadership team is out of ideas, and they lack the skill or experience to lead a growth company, it's inevitable that you arrive at this outcome. Totally clueless.

We're doomed to watch the continued decline of this business. The whole UEM and VDI market is now a low priority software category for enterprise IT leaders at our customers. Citrix is in a similar situation to Omnissa. Few other vendors are experiencing any growth. As these vendors keep sinking, just be prepared to rise to the surface when the job market recovers, and then get out of this depressing part of the IT industry. It's history.

If you read Brian’s original post (er rant, because he never received his big payout) he didn’t think EUC would be spun out. How wrong was he.

Brian went off to work at a pinball startup. I guess we all need to have a break from IT :)

Brian’s now at Citrix. Guess we all godda pay the bills eh.

CSG CEO Tom (who’s a chip off the Hock block) has arguably molded Citrix into a company loathed as much as AVGO

Its called enshittification. Its endemic in I.t. now as a result of a certain people from a certain country who are world famous for eating,living,breathing and talking utter sh-t. I'm old enough to remember when the west had standards in I.t. that were far greater than the third world to the point that any tech from the third world would have to retrain and certify if they came to the west. It all magically disappeared. Now its all dodgy code and vibe coding in a vain attempt to mask how cr-p the code is. Its literally the reason why 737 Max's were falling from the sky and this is now acceptable in the west because of weak westerners who sold their morals and integrity out for payouts and dividends.
