F5 reviews

Company vision and direction still evolving under new CEO. Too much confusion around product priorities Poor collaboration between different groups. Too much politics and castle building in Product Development middle management. One can grow in PD only if he actively participates in dirty politics. Top is full of old timers who have only worked in F5 all their life and most of them don't have a clue how industry is evolving.

Inside Sales management... Corp politics at its worst, micromanagement, too much bureaucracy, constantly changing direction on the Sales Team, lack of focus. Not only were the Inside Sales Team micromanaged on a daily basis, we also had to fill out a daily excel spreadsheet on what we were doing every hour. if that wasn't turned in at the end of every work day, we were told that we should start looking for a new job. Constant finger pointing and always under pressure to justify your job and worth. Very toxic environment.
