When we shifted from a cooperative and friendly work environment that respected its employees to a business where those on top consider themselves better than those under them is when things started to go downhill. We used to work together to make the company better, now those on top are working for themselves and they don't care who they step over to get what they want. There's no fixing this. Citrix will continue to sink further until it's completely gone. It's too late to right this ship.

Hoping the deal falls through.
It went to cr*p when BC joined the board and invited his friends to the party to line their pockets. this was when Citrix stopped being about the customer and doing what was right and started to do what was right for Elliot and for those with PRSU (if you catch my drift).
Since BC arrived it seems that the goal was to sell the company somehow to enrich the board....
Recent big payouts to exiting ELT members for failure a really sickneing to the staff. Not that let people go straight away they keep them on as "advisors to the CEO" (DH/PJ)... perhaps so we avoid their mistakes or perhaps so that BC can stay on the golf course...
@@2mlj+1fvZhNV2 Really? HQ has been a ghost town, like most other offices, because everyone is working from home since 2019. This has nothing to do with the recent events.
I was headquarters today , a ghost town . Nothing close to the buzzing happy campus .
Think it’s time , the only reason I would hang around is for the easy money .
The entourage from SAP is really when Citrix began to fail in leadership. No product vision and zero capability to make Citrix great at a time (pandemic) when they should have had high growth. Of course the board doesn't want to admit this because they hired them.
The post-Templeton ELT had 6 years to shift the company and they flailed around, only applying financial engineering and not forcing a better product/service that will help customers in their new cloud era. If all you know is XenDesktop, you see the world as needing XenDesktop... The world is littered with companies that had strong positions with customers and completely laid it to waste because they could not see a world different than their own. Not easy, technically and certainly culturally... So now there will be one more of the same dead/zombie companies in the market.. That Citrix for you.
Citrix has been failing for many years. Ever since Templeton left the company has never been the same.
