A normal day would be getting into work and following up on tickets for our customers. There could be new or existing tickets that will need to be worked on. Issues pertain to service provider triple play networks (voice, video, data) and enterprise issues. I could be working a SIP call issue one minute and the network a network down video issue being caused by loss of IGMP queries, joins, and leaves. There are also many enterprise networks that we support ranging from all aspects of networking.

I also am the system integrator providing pro services on site. This could be a site survey, a network health check, installation and design of networks, to training.

I learned triple play service providers networks in my time at Allied Telesis. 

The most enjoyable part was continuing to work with networks.

Solid company and when I started we had our primary R&D in NC where I had significant customers.
Had an excellent group and developed a great team mentality focused on the customer who trusted us and each team member had trust among our group.

Cross culture learning, Japan and US were engaged in seeing applications that  worked in each market world wide.  Running joke by CEO, the smallest global company in the world.  Penetrating significantly into the Asian, European, Oceania, North American and South American markets.

Offers a extensive product offering in lower end fiber conversion equipment & data switching globally.  Higher end product has been a challenge.

Allied Telesis manufactured solid products. I was their federal field rep. I had to generate my own leads and close them. I had a team of inexperienced sales reps so I was also the mentor and trainer for government sales. The hardest part of the job would be the lead generation since we did not advertise. The most enjoyable part of the job is working with the customers. Providing satisfaction and generating loyalty.

- Great learning experience, perfect for recent graduate, where -- depending of the job position -- you might get great global exposure working with cross-country teams all over Asia, Europe and Americas.
- Pay is slightly below average, which is an issue to keep good employees long-term
- Met wonderrful people

if you like to work extremely hard, if you love your job, if you have goals, Allied Telesis is your place.

Good management is made by good people, so while I was happy with my Manager (SVP of IT) other struggled a lot.

Good benefit even if not great, highly demanding job, full of personal satisfaction.

Company cares about future and does its best to find future technologies to invest into.  The do need to update their technology to compete in the cyber security space, this has not happened yet.

The company can never focus. They go by whoever just flew in, or left an office, wait, you don’t get an office…upper mgt in cubes, NOT kidding. Makes decisions on which way the wind is blowing. Real talent in engineers, then they leave because of prior points. They have lost so many good people.

A great company with collaborative team work with most of the teams, whether it is internally, and externally with virtual team.  Everybody worked hard, and played hard. Bureaucracy is minimum, which pushed the process of escalation easier, and resolving issue in a timely manner.

It is all about your manager. if you have the "luck" to report to the good ones, your job will be fun, challenging, and not micromanaged. You will be held accountable for your successes and.. mistakes. As it should be. Not all the managers are the same, though. 

Generally lacking due to ineffective management practices and no annual performance reviews or pay raise incentives.  Benefits about average.  Company suffers from almost continuous financial hardships.
