Thread regarding Juniper Networks Inc. layoffs

Get it done, once and for all

Many individuals who should have been cut, but made it through this round of layoffs, especially those in middle and upper management, know they are lucky to have survived. Now lthey have to face the music, the daily grind at Juniper, with elevated levels of emotions filled with guilt, stress, anxiety, and anger which will most definitely lead to other behavioral consequences - bad management, rude and arrogant interactions, and poor decision making in their personal and professional life, just to name a few.

Sadly, it's not just their direct reports or immediate team members who will have to endure these resulting consequences and bad behaviors, the effects of this will be felt company wide in due course and even shareholders will feel the pain over time.

This is why it is so important to trim all the (toxic) fat and layoff all deserving individuals, without bias and favoratism - once. Get it done, once and for all.

In summary, with this last round of layoffs, we missed yet another golden opportunity to correct the course and right this sinking ship, that's truly heading in the wrong direction. The effects will be felt all around for years to come.

Well said, @XbgNKgU-3ned.

True. I agree Juniper is breeding ground for incompetence and the promotion of technical engineers to business decision and people management roles is the fundamental reason why we have failed. I am not convinced RR will try to fix this because his job is also in jeopardy.
