Pros
Getting laid off with a severance package that I earned for 11 years working for Citrix Online.
Cons
I worked at LogMeIn who acquired Citrix Online around 2017. After laying off much of the Santa Barbara based marketing team, and much of the other teams, all management became based out of the Boston Office. My direct manager had zero interest in keeping any of our meetings, and the entire Boston team was hesitant to even use our award winning software that Citrix Online built, GoToMeeting. Most of the people at headquarters didn't even turn on their cameras. Our once thriving office became a sad step child of the larger brand. The CEO rarely came out to visit our office and there was a collective feeling like we were a sinking ship. A few years later, and everyone has gone remote and they have sold off their santa Barbara offices. Very depressing for anyone who spent their last couple years working there.
