Disapproves of CEO

Nortel Networks Senior Software Engineer in Mississauga, ON (Canada): (Past Employee - 2008)

“Has-been company; time to look elsewhere”

2 of 2 people found this helpful

Pros

Good co-workers, great work-from-home/telecommuting arrangements, reasonable time off (e.g.taking vacation days on short notice)

Cons

Continual layoffs, low employee morale, stagnant salaries, too much out-sourced to countries where the job is being done very poorly.
Benefits have been reduced regularly; stock price is stagnant

Advice to Senior Management

Start rewarding the good people (e.g. SPOT awards); get rid of the mandatory "10% under-perform" ratings; stop the failed outsourcing attempts and hire good people
