Pros

Costco snacks stacked in kitchen. Happy hours Friday. Mayya's snacks, roaches around coffer machines.

Cons

Work life balance is out of whack due to daily day and night meetings discussing repetitive stuff...job security :)) C levels don't care how specifically IT is managed, as there is no CIO or even VP. Project priorities, task management all are jumbled together, which triggers last minute anxiety and then you know how it trickles.There's no clue what to do when to do forget how to do part.

Pros

Top-tier technology. brilliant engineers. Incredible customer support TAC. The hyperscalers are consuming Arista tech at an alarming rate, and that serves as a great testimonial to the integrity of the technology, but the GTM strategy for Campus expansion is nonexistent.

Cons

Campus/Enterprise & Commercial sales regions are on an island of their own. Zero business development teams, zero marketing, zero branding, zero latest generation tools to prospect, research, and extract data to target your campaigns. If you don't have existing relationships in your market, then you're on your own to prospect, generate interest, connect with decision makers, identify "at bat opportunities" and close new business. The Hyperscaler use-case examples aren't enough to win real enterprise business from Cisco and HPE.
