Pros

Avaya attracts the best customers. Forward thinking and always buying.

Cons

Brutal management, someone always gets placed in bottom 10% and layoffs are multiple times per year. A team can be all top players and successful but someone has to go to keep EBITDA on target. There was no status quo, sales targets always raised without regard to the economy.

Pros

The company used to care about customers, but they removed all the sales people who actually visited and consulted with customers to save travel cost.

Cons

The company's newest CEO, Patrick, only cares about getting back to a Cybersecurity company as fast as possible. Can't sell the company fast enough, but buyers can't get past due diligence periods.
