as someone who was just paid off

after 8 years at symc, my feeling is that the frustration felt by a large proportion of the sales team

seems to be (at last) shared by the board.

product roadmaps for 3 years with little innovation. compensation schemes and targets that are late and unrealistic. channel program that is still not announced after more than a year of empty promises.
