Just wondering if the latest acquisition of Accompany will bring even more layoffs with it? I'm sure the incoming company will see major cuts, after all that's what Cisco always does when it buys something, but what about us? Is anybody at Cisco in danger from this deal or not?

They only have 40 employees. Some are no doubt HR, finance, etc. but not much to cut.
This looks like an acquihire. Chang just replaced Rowan as the head of the collab BU I guess this is her payoff.
There are Ex-Microsoft executives and now Ex Googler Executive to head the Collaboration BU. Looks like Cisco is trying to become like them.
270 Mil acquisitions are a dime a dozen.
