Avaya to become a software company

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Avaya designs, builds and manages communications networks, is a leader in enterprise communications, Internet Protocol (IP) telephony systems and communications software applications and services. Since spinoff from Lucent in 2000, Avaya has wanted to become a software company that has been on the roadmap for many years.

Cons

Avaya has been losing market share in core contact center and messaging lines of business. The move to send core product development and services support offshore has caused some hardships to maintain quality of the products and support services.

Pros

Pay was adequate, but the company seeemed to suffer from too much dead wood and not enough forward thinking.

Cons

A large portion of the company was still focused on phones - which seems backwards. Deskphones have been dinosaurs since 2008.

Failing quickly

Pros

Good base salary, there were some great leaders but they are all gone

Cons

Those who survived the Nortel failure through political vs. business expertise are basically all that's left. The business is run on emotion and self promotion vs fact and fiscal responsibility.
