F5 Networks are laying a chunk of their employees off while their executives constantly post on LinkedIn about traveling, partying overseas, and in one situation their CIO bragging about building a “Villa” in the Isle of Palms, South Carolina. They have the 6th largest building in the PNW and don’t offer RSUs. What a toxic place to work. Steer clear folks!
Jesus
I'm at F5, there were small layoffs 2 months ago. All tech execs are overpaid, we all know that. I find it WAY less toxic than MSFT .
“…don’t offer RSUs”??? Clearly you have no idea what you’re talking about. Also, along those lines, F5 doesn’t own (“have”) any buildings. They only own the naming rights for the building they’re headquartered in.
Why does F5 need that monument in the downtown?
The timing was right when the old execs (long timers that built the company from nothing) were in their way out. I think it was a way to make a statement of their accomplishments before exiting. Also the Elliot ave campus was maxed out on space.
