I drove past Ruckus and the 2 buildings look empty. Many of my old Ruckus colleagues show up in other companies (on LinkedIn).

Thirdly, Commscope bought Ruckus thinking they would keep the Ruckus name intact. Their explanation was that more people know Ruckus than people know Commscope. They actually said that about their own company.

It must be something about Commscope though, because now both names mean a lot less, I think. I feel like Ruckus was a great place, but it's not the fault of those of us who were at Ruckus before Commscope bought it.

Just sayin.

Last year they let go of the teams in Israel. This year is nothing new.

It's simple math.

It s—s, but I'm pretty sure Ruckus will lose one of the two buildings next week.

To all my WiFi bros still at Ruckus (the few left), go see if Cisco Meraki is hiring.

Not sure about trolls. But I do think that Ruckus kooks like a ghost town compared to it's former glory days.

Some troll throws out things like this to start a thread when they know nothing and want to put out feelers. Ignore them.

It would NOT surprise me. Ruckus (now Commscope owns the old Foundry Networks. There were still a few people there. That means, Ruckus never experienced growth.

Well, they did experience growth, but that was because Brocade AND Broadcom dumpster'd them, and left them with a few additional employees from Foundry Networks, most of which are gone now (Commscope).

They also tried to get in on OnGo, but that never really went anywhere. See, Commscope did not purchase Ruckus for cloud managed wifi access points. They can't compete with Meraki.

Nope .. I think Commscope purchased Ruckus for OnGo because it might compliment Commscope 3G. But now if that ain't working out. And it ain't. As the song says you got another thing coming.

What is going on? Below post suggests Home sale, which admittedly comes without a surprise, but this Ruckus news is out of the blue?

Isn't Ruckus' biggest claim to fame selling access points to hotel chains.

Interesting, I have heard people say that Commscope wanted Ruckus, but what they fail to admit, is that Arris outbid Commscope to get Ruckus.

So, did they (Commscope) REALLY want Ruckus?

What changed their mind? And if they changed their mind once, how bout now?
