Vantaggi
I worked with many amazingly intelligent engineers. The work itself was very interesting most of the time. Management at the project level was also very good. I truly enjoyed most of the time spent at Avaya, I would say this was in large part a result of the people I worked with. Additionally, the compensation, pay, and benefits were all very good. Most managers had a good view of work/life balance, and even though I worked many evenings, it was easy to take time when I needed too.
Svantaggi
All the best things I liked about Avaya were disappearing. Avaya has not been the same place since it went private. It felt as if the employee was not valued. I hoped for the best and I still hope Avaya finds its direction, but it had not become a good place for the average employee. Morale was very low when I left and it appears upper management does not care, or is actually hoping for attrition. Avaya now is not the place it was a couple years back
