Pros

Some good people. What's left of the engineering crew is good to work with.

Cons

Everyone is out to get everyone else. The lying that goes on at the upper level is unlike anything that I've ever seen. Backstabbing, lying, and turf wars drive all management decisions. There is no product focus. No central sales strategy. If you are a technology company or division being acquired you can kiss product development good bye. The overall strategy is to acquire older products and service the contracts while reducing costs. They will tell you otherwise but all they want is the contracts. If they don't fire you they will make your life miserable to the point that you leave. When they acquire you they will promise you the world. "We care about the people", "We believe in the products", "We're going to get your product to market". All lies. The workforce is reduced to the point of stagnation. For a development company this is like cutting off oxygen.

Pros

They introduce themselves with a great facade and schpiel. "Hi, we're from Newnet, and we're here to help. We really like you and your products, and want to grow them." Thankfully, group was divested within a year from Newnet to a much more successful company.

Cons

Seriously, if you're acquired, do some Google searches (Newnet and Skyview), and get your Plan B ready. Within 3 months, had a layoff, and pretty regular ones after that. Right after having one, we found out that the Skyview founder had just bought Dr. Dre's house for $30+ million dollars just to tear it down. Look at Newnet management, look at Skyview management - most the same people! Absolutely no R&D, just trying to drain every last penny from what's left. HR was really incompetent, they overcharged our location for healthcare, only correcting it when threatened. Look at all reviews - positive ones are pretty much from Bangalore. What's that tell you?
