Pros

Working for an IT manufacturer gives you a window into a lot of different industries, public sector organizations and general economic insight.

Cons

Avaya specifically offers very little in the way of culture, professional development or anything that may generate a sense of pride and loyalty in its employees. As a young professional approaching 3 years with the company, I am feeling ever more anxious that I am wasting valuable "development" years with a company that has zero interest in investing in its people or "thinking big" about the future

Pros

The company used to care about customers, but they removed all the sales people who actually visited and consulted with customers to save travel cost.

Cons

The company's newest CEO, Patrick, only cares about getting back to a Cybersecurity company as fast as possible. Can't sell the company fast enough, but buyers can't get past due diligence periods.
