    Nortel Networks Senior Marketing Manager in Dallas, TX:   (Past Employee - 2009)

    Pros

    At one time it was a leading company with great products and technology. Well known for R&D and innovation. Global company with $1B or more in good days.

    Cons

    Poor management, leadership and loss of focus in a competitive landscape

    Advice to Senior Management

    Get some leaders who can manage the financial aspect as well as product. Need an evanglist like John Chambers of Cisco leading this type of company.
