Thread regarding F5 Networks Inc. layoffs

I sum up F5 in one word

BORING

Why else would they hire a Chief innovation officer?

Duh no new products and the ones they have are buggy

This article is one day off from the original article mentioned: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/heres-why-f5-networks-ffiv-144510171.html

Isn’t investing advice great?!

Manage your own money. Read more than a dozen articles and look at the data before trading. That’s my advice.

For every negative article about anything, you can find the opposite:

Quoting one article is sort of meaningless in business or anything else. What’s the consensus say?

“F5 isn't exciting as there are no new products and the only strategy that exists is to have semi annual RIFs ro shore up all the financial numbers”

Business isn’t meant to be exciting for employees. Stockholders are more excited lately and that’s what drives decision making in business. Nothing else matters. Whatever is happening in the last 6 months, the market is reacting positively to it - like it or not. Maybe failed acquisitions limiting new ones and RIFs are the secret sauce. Get ready for more of it.

FFIV up 49% in last year
that’s not exciting?
what is exciting to Yahoo? being sold and then being sold again 4 years later?

F5 isn't exciting as there are no new products and the only strategy that exists is to have semi annual RIFs ro shore up all the financial numbers

Yahoo Finance? Seriously? As critical as I am of FFIV, I’d rather stick a fork in my eye before routinely reading Yahoo Finance.

Some investments are not “exciting” and they are still worthwhile investments. I’m not saying FFIV is a worthwhile investment, but using “exciting” as a reason to invest? Way to go Yahoo Finance, way to go.
