Vyatta gives Nortel the half-Nelson
,----[ Quote ]
| Vyatta vice president of market and strategy Dave Roberts administered
| the “ha” on his blog, Opensourcejuicer:
|
| It was very clear when I was there that anybody who wanted a long term
| career in Nortel had to be associated with the carrier group, preferably
| an optical product line. That was where all the momentum was within the
| company. If you were an employee working on other things (enterprise
| products in my case), it was clear that you weren’t going to get any of
| the investment, attention, or promotions. In contrast, the optical
| management teams were masters of the universe.
|
| Now I want to turn that into an “ah-ha”.
|
| Nortel became dependent on phone companies, outfits like AT&T, Comcast and
| Verizon. After DWDM brought the benefits of Moore’s Law to fiber, these
| companies stopped buying. And they’re still not buying.

Microsoft layoffs any day now...
A closure of this criminal organisation (fact) would be ideal, but a gradual
implosion would do too.
