Good pay if you negotiate. Telecom pays too much. Don’t accept a position for less than $10K over your second offer

Dying company in a dying industry.

Pros

Fourth quarter generated $11 million in profit from operations.

Cons

But when interest was applied Avaya lost money, again… Interest on the debt was $57 million. Long term debt is $3 billion plus and total liabilities are $5.6 billion. ($8.6 billion) No money to buy a piece of paper, do you think you will ever get a bonus, lol
