Another round of layoffs due to the transformation into software based company.
The acquisition of Ixia just made it happened again.
Acquire, layoff and repeat seems to be the new business methodology here.
Hardware will be trimmed to its minimum and R&D will be downsized to almost bare bones.
They have lost their way due to being stuck in the past for decades. No ideas how to modernize the company now that times have changed!! Inept people are still driving the show.
Another software boom on the works, it can not last forever.
