- Recent divestiture from Mandiant and merge with McAfee enterprise - Product direction has been fairly clear for a long time, but execution has been elusive - Leadership has problems realizing where the problems are, so the don't always optimize in the right places to make execution happen. - Product leadership is more engineering and security leadership rather than product leadership, which is the source of a lot of their problems.
