Ive been here for what feels like centuries. There are very few managers left that still have old quality leadership (ie: let their crew do their jobs and don't micromanage). It's always been about numbers but not like this.
I just lost a manager that had seen all of the bad management I had been through and took great care of me and his team. Current management is nothing but defensive and demanding. that is no way to live. I love what I do, that is NOT how you treat people. I haven't had a manager that understood MY needs to do my job since 2012.
And for FFS let us work from home without questioning us after all this pandemic garbage is over with.
This is an American made company that turned to complete garbage. I used to be PROUD to work here.
It'd be nice to bring the original C-Suite to fix the mess RR got us in. Funny that our own founder is barely with us. I WONDER WHY???
You know what s—s? I'm venting here because I'm afraid of retribution. I could have vented all of this to my manager but noooo now he's gone because of some messed up BS, they set him up to fail and that's what hurts the most. Fk you Jnpr, fk you.

I am really sorry that you feel like this. I work at Juniper also, and have done for many years, but your experience is completely different to mine. I recommend that you talk to HR at the right level and work on getting things back on track.
Damn this is so spot on. I used to be so proud to work here too- had never worked so hard in all my career. Worked hard for the team, company as a whole and my own development. BUT Lord help you if you get on the wrong side of management though "something" you did as you will never know or be told. Could be as simple as disagreeing with them. Management (low level regional mafia) has literally s—ed the life out of me through undermining tactics, extreme micro-management, public/private humiliation, discrimination and talking behind your back. Its worse than high school. True- never vent to anyone including HR for when they get wind its you, you will be propped up to fail and your life will become hell. You will want to quit out of sheer humiliation and the realization that you are now a burnt our shell of what you used to be. Seen it happen to others too.
Leave the place is poison
