Sun Microsystems Marketing Manager in Menlo Park, CA:   (Current Employee)

Pros

decent salaries, used to be a fun place to work but the latest cuts put too much strain on all employees.

Cons

overworked, under appreciated, not much room for advancement because upper management does not make middle management develop their employees. Long term management continues to make bad decisions with lack of intervention.

Advice to Senior Management

Take a long hard look at the middle managers you have making the decisions that impact your company! Until Sun takes the RIF process seriously, bad decisions will continue to manifest itself. How about putting the managers that are 1 level down in the role of their current manager or director and downgrade the salaries. This will not adversely affect the business much to your surprise. The "new blood" may actually spawn new ideas and revive the sinking company
