How fortunate in the short term, and unfortunate in the long term.

(funny story, Cisco's workplace resources group's bonuses are based on (total revenue) / headcount+workplace costs. Instead of incentives based on retention and growth, the group gets a bigger bonus every time a group is downsized, or they close an office.)

I just hope that they don't have the same result as the acquisition of Airespace in ~2006...

Airespce brain trust cashed out and jumped out and left Cisco's wifi product poor at best...

So many mistakes... they have solidified their offering - but if you were an airespce/cisco customer when that happened -- it was horrific.
