I started working here only after the last recession ended so for those who have been with this company a little longer, I would like to hear how Juniper managed through 2008? Everyone is already speculating that rough economic waters will be the... — read more

Layoffs are coming
The recession is just around the corner and when it hits full force, many of us will end up having to look for new jobs. I'm not trying to scare people. I'm just warning everybody that now's the time to start saving just in case. Even if nothing... — read more

May be right time for huge stock buy back, any comments?
CRO
Have they found a sales leader
“Merit” increase review has started. I heard 2%, even though the claim record numbers.
That does not add up.

Sales leadership
Looks like MJ is leaving. Real reason? Who’s his successor
When a toxic worker is actually liked by the manager
Instead of rooting out toxic employees so they don't disrupt the workflow, our manager is doing exactly the opposite. The biggest backstabber and spreader of bad vibes is our manager’s favorite. I just hope that managers like this are in the... — read more
Silent layoffs keep happening
Pay attention everybody. Not every person who is no longer here made that decision for themselves. Yes, there's attrition going on but there are layoffs as well. There are no big rounds so WARN is not necessary. A few people here and a few people... — read more
VERP - Voluntary Early Retirement Program
Lot of senior people seem to have taken this and quitting. Announced late last year, and some or most leaving in March 2021. Anyone know the details of this program, what were the terms and eligibility? Must've been attractive for so many to opt... — read more
Sr staff salary
Recruiter contacted me for sr staff position, I asked $275k base. Will juniper pay $275k for sr staff.
Juniper SASE market
What is happening there? Juniper developing SASE sounds hilarious. Also, what is the security market revenue? SRX revenue and highly boasted SPC3 card?
News on more layoffs
Does anybody know when the next major round of layoffs will hit?
We all know this is a toxic environment
Needless to say, I think Juniper has the most toxic atmosphere of all the companies I've worked for. But no one to share any tips on how to easily survive this kind of workplace. How to stay calm and professional in this atmosphere? For now, I try... — read more
Toxic Managers....
For how long this organization will let these toxic managers run the show without any sense of accountability and letting them run their own fiefdom. More so when they have adversely impacted careers of engineers for decades and this organization... — read more
Almost March and still no quota sheets
This is a disgrace. Is anyone else experiencing the same thing?
Reputation
They are desperately trying not to tarnish Juniper's reputation. The layoffs are almost shrouded in mystery and little is heard of them in the media as Juniper makes sure they are minor (albeit frequent). And yet, despite that, I haven’t heard... — read more
How else to explain the sudden change?
I have been working here since 2014 and all these years I have been quite comfortable working here. I encountered smaller issuess of course, it wasn’t ideal, but I didn’t have any major complaints. In recent months, however, this has not been the... — read more
Almost everyone looks to jump the ship
I just wonder who intends to stay here for another year, two or more. Only those in higher positions and those who do not have enough skills? All my colleagues intend to leave in the coming months and I hope that I will not be the last of them to... — read more
"Do as I tell!"
"Do as I tell you!" approach frustrates me the most in this company. Okay, I’m not saying we should disobey the manager, but in no company I’ve worked for so far have I come across such a rigid attitude that employees shouldn’t have any opinion... — read more
I hope that's it
Given how unsuccessful Juniper has proven itself with backfilling positions, I hope none of my colleagues will leave any time soon. I don't know if the reason is that all those who were determined to leave have already left, but it seems to me that... — read more
W2 for people who left last year
I left Juniper last year after spending several years. yet to get W2 from ADP. Anyone who left last year got the same, just want to make sure mine did not get lost in mail
How can Juniper be on the radar of young talent again?
Maybe it's just my subjective opinion, but this company has long been avoided by young talents. Maybe Juniper thinks they're not even needed here? If that is not the reason, then perhaps leaders are incapable of making the company competitive in... — read more
More cuts in February
Rumors are circulating again about February cuts. Is there a way to know for sure something is coming?
How many employees were affected by the vaccine mandate?
Just curious how many people ended up being let go or forced to do something against their will regarding the mandatory vaccinations. After the Supreme Court shot the law down I'm guessing a lot of lawsuits are on the way.
Financial results to be released soon
Any predictions?
What does Juniper CTO doing
Any idea? Not sure why is he hanging there.
Hey JNPR C Suite, Look at ANET share
Shame on you guys.
How does attrition affect you?
I have more and more work to do. Colleagues leave, replacements come very slowly or not at all. If another colleague leaves, I will also be forced to look for a new job. Juniper obviously has no intention of doing anything to stop people from... — read more
Juniper stock going up
Any reason? I didn't see any major anouncement from JNPR. Is it a transient bubble?
Record Orders !!
I keep seeing this all over LinkedIn, record quarter for orders. This is clearly untrue, 10 years ago Juniper revenue was 20% higher than today. Self delusion and hope, the usual strategy here
Yes-man culture
To be fair, most companies have such a culture, but here it's been raised to a higher level. Yes-man and yes-woman everywhere! Now someone might ask why it bothers me so much? It bothers me because such an environment demotivates me to work. On... — read more
