      It's a Joke!

      Pros

      we used to get paid big bonuses, but no more; however, the exec are still getting their nice perks the new campus is nice, but location is terrible; everyone's commute doubled.

      Cons

      they cut down on vacation accruals and vacation limits no matter what they have been advertising, they are not going to pay the usual bonus in Dec (which is a constant, so more like a salary than a real bonus)... GREAT! getting a small holiday generosity gift.... more like a slap in face at this point. Stock is so volatile, it's hard to rely on it for real long term appreciation; Morale is overall low Foundry acquisition backfired, obviously is not working; but if you listen to Klayko it's all going well...

      Career Growth and Promotions Need Not Apply Here

      Pros

      Brocade has good networking products and its salaries are competitive and bonuses are especially generous. Many of the employees are great to work with and very knowledgeable.

      Cons

      Brocade is definitely not a place where one comes to grow their career. Promotions seem to be virtually nonexistent. I have seen people stay at the same level for 7+ years. I guess that what a competitive salary and a good bonus does - makes one stagnant. Brocade seems to be caught up in endless process and meeting morass.

      Pros

      - Compensated well - bonus was reliable and usually paid out - Could move around from dept to dept - Able to work remotely - Good technical infrastructure

      Cons

      - New exec management team was no longer focused on employee investment - Focused on reducing costs at the expense of the employee - Lack of HR talent and expertise; new HR leader did not represent employees; selfish and only represented exec management - Heavy layers of management
