Pros

Established company Not too big, not to small Good place to develop skills Benefits are still competetive for the industry

Cons

Foundry acquisition was a drag both financially and technologically. "If you can't build it, buy it" only works if you're buying something that adds value. Everyone (especially legacy Brocade employees) is still waiting to see what value Foundry added.
