Work Life Balance

Pros

There are workout facilities at each site and they offer yoga, kick boxing and additional classes, which helps get a person away from their desk and find time to relieve stress.

Cons

The work life balance is said to be a big priority but there have been reduction in force that workloads have increased and taking time off is not a reality.

Pros

Company is innovative and they truly believe in pay for performance. If you do well, you do well.

Cons

You are somewhat on an island. When things don't go well with products or problems, you are somewhat on an island to get things smoothed over. Also, Brocade still runs as 2 separate companies and they have not done a good job combining the old Foundry company with Brocade.

Great Technology, very loyal customers, unique OEM relationships

Cons

Weak management, no real dynamics in sales, too many "hangers-on" in sales, too little accountability, HQ mentality at opposite to that in the field.
