Really good marketers are fleeing in the middle of a pandemic, not just 1 or 2, but 10-15. That should tell you something. The economy is bad, there's a global catastrophe. And usually in these situations people hunker down try to keep their job. Not at Ivanti. The marketing department is bleeding and nearly every good marketer is gone.
Why?
Because good demand gen and digital marketers and content marketers are being forced to answer to glorified event planners in Europe.
Because if you don't follow the new regime blindly, you'll be shown the door.
Because good content marketing and demand gen is not respected or valued. The only thing valued is age and experience (specifically at Infor)
If you are young, vibrant, smart, and believe marketing other than field marketing is effective, DO NOT work at Ivanti.
Everyone who has left from marketing, from product, from engineering and from CS has moved on to better things. This is without exception.
Do this: if you apply for a job there make sure you ask why the job is open. And before you apply ask yourself why a company that is shrinking has so many jobs open.
