      Brocade is worth a second look.

      Pros

      The people. Brocade is loaded with very talented people who I enjoy working with and will have in my life for years to come. Also, Brocade does tend to have it's act together. We have our challenges, just like any company, but overall Brocade fosters a self leading, flexible and fair environment.

      Cons

      Clear action with respect to the corporate direction. The SAN industry can be very competitive and fickle.

      Pros

      The company is financially stable, and because you're doing 2-3 jobs, you probably have much better job security than in many other companies of silicon valley. In all fairness, some departments at Brocade are a joy to work for, I've seen many of my collegues in Manufacturing enjoy their work, have tremendous spirit and team work in place. As for marketing ,sales, IT it is really a lousy place.

      Cons

      Management is awful, stingy, political, manipluative, favoritism is the way to get ahead.I have a long career in high-tech, the level of unfairness that I felt at Brocade was my first, awful experience in corporate america.

      Pros

      Brocade does some interesting work in a field with cut-throat competition...it's a miracle the company has survived this long. Brocade is good at utilizing commodity OTS SW (linux and so on) and specializing it for various products.

      Cons

      Uncertain future, plus the options backdating scandal really tarnished the stock. Too buzzword intensive...plus the marketing dept. uses questionable tactics...we should really be differentiating ourselves on our products, not badmouthing the competition.
