Thread regarding Windstream Corp. layoffs

Question

If Windstream enterprise has this magical transformative technology that every company needs to buy to be successful, one would assume they would be the most successful company on the exchange. So if what they are selling is so great and so easy to implement, why aren’t they using it more effectively if at all and why are they failing so miserably? Hardly the vote of confidence in the products they are betting the farm (and everyone’s jobs) on

All support teams think their company's products are crap.

I agree there has to be more than this latest product fad to avoid this downward spiral.

Are you a mediocre IT person with basic networking and can operate a sonicwall? Bam you have SDWAN it's called a probably planned VPN... SDwan is a load of marketing jibbersh to empress the VP of IT for a company... a person who is probably not an IT person themselves but know enough to fake it to the top... IT guys who know something will laugh you out the room once they figure out what is going on. Your going to sell me Enterprise data over two consumer data lines? Bahahaahahah no think you please quote me MPLS like I asked you to...

This is why a company shouldn’t treat their employees like pieces of cr@p, lie to them, take away benefits, reduce merit increases, layoff every quarter, all while increasing their own pay and bonuses.

You end up with brutally honest employees calling out the companies b---s--- publicly.

I've been told by our support teams that our SDWAN product is crap. That we helped the vendor with identifying more than 3000 bugs. And now they are trying to develop a home grown opensorce solution with barely any features. Combine that with the industry moving towards independent vender based cloud solutions (fancy VPN solutions over the Internet.) These are provider independent and have virtually no additional cost beyond the monthly broadband. Only companies wanting a turnkey solution would want our managed SDWAN. I don't see how we can bank on it.
