Pros

Nothing left to talk about anymore as a pro. All about ways to save money because the company is way over its head.

Cons

To work here is like being in an adult kindergarten class where nobody plays well together. It's also like a High School with pockets of cliques of people who have been around long enough, that it doesn't matter whether they are relevant, or have the proper skill sets, they get promoted. Newer managers brought in from big companies try to manage the company like it's a big one, but clash with the no skill managers who live for start up. The rest of us see conflict and secrecy and lack of collaboration between groups. It's clear why this is now. Everyone lives in fear of losing their jobs on a daily basis. When massive layoffs are leaked to the paper before giving anyone any notice, just shows how childish the leaders really are at SevOne. This has not been a culture of awesome in quite some time now and never will again. SevOne is dying

Pros

Nice office, lax environment. Fun opportunities.

Cons

5 years too late on technology update, no trust in the engineers to make changes, below market pay rates. Truly a useless CEO. CTOs oursource to companies that they have a stake in (has happened at least twice)

Thanks for your input. Some companies aren’t ideal matches for some employees. But we’re sorry to see you go and wish you well in the future. As for your technology commentary, however, it seems a bit off base. The wave of change around network virtualization started about two years ago amid lots of hype. However, these major technology shifts take time to transition from hype to reality; and it has taken the past two years for these markets to materialize. The shift to the implementation and management of the virtual network is a reality in 2018, and the timing is perfectly aligned to the delivery of our new SevOne solutions to the market. I'm proud of what our team has accomplished over the past few years. Highlights include the advancement of our core platform, the development of our new Data Insight product, and the delivery of market-leading solutions for SD-WAN, SDN, NFV, and enterprise Wi-Fi management. If you were part of the teams that helped deliver these advances and cool new solutions – thank you! The market response to these innovations has been very positive. From customers, to partners such as Cisco and Red Hat, to analysts at firms like Gartner and 451, the feedback is that SevOne has the right solutions at the right time. -Jim Melvin, SVP Marketing & Corporate Development
