Polycom hiring & firing

If you know people at PLCM... you might have heard..they're axing more. August was the time to axe sales management. At least 60 got the axe. Now, they're moving down the ranks and individual contributors are being shot. Account managers, channel managers, demo specialists, anyone that is either not performing or is located in the wrong spot.

I've also heard that PLCM is going to be hiring like crazy.

But...who knows... do you suppose they will continue that plan? or decide on something else? Well...I mean.. will the TAA sale make things happen differently? Probably not... PLCM needs to be aggressive. They have to count on something called "ABC". ABC is "anything but cisco"... and its a mantra that developed over the last few years. Unfortunately alot of the aggressive sales techniques often pissed often techies. Or bugs... or product lines that disappeared after only being available for less than a year. But..again..who knows. Random things do happen.
