Juniper Networks

I loved working at Juniper for the 9 years I was there. I was given numerous opportunities to grow and excel in each of my positions. The entire management team including the C Level Executives were authentic as well as approachable at anytime. 
My typical day would start at 630 am with someone whether it was a customer, account team or sales manager needing to get into the Briefing Center before the 7 am open. I would greet and walk every person in for a meeting to one of our 18 conference rooms in the 40,000 sq ft two level meeting space.We had both Corporate and Customer or Partner briefings daily.
The best part of my job was no two days were ever the same, with the constant flow of folks coming and going to the various different needs that each person would have. I loved the fast past ever changing dynamics with each briefing that occurred. One other aspect of my job that I loved was working with my team. It isn't often that you can work with a group of 8 woman and all get along. We all had our own roles but could step in for one another at anytime and we each appreciated one another for all that was contributed. At no time did anyone feel threatened by the help or constructive criticism given. The only reason I left my role was I needed to move to an area where I could afford a home and work toward a realistic retirement plan.

Management did not have as much backbone as I would have liked, however, if one was successful at accomplishing goals, one could be quite oblivious to all the negative energy that was present in some departments.  The company was very focused on wooing summer interns on board to assure there was a fresh approach to the company's overall success.  Unfortunately, the senior (age wise) personnel took a hit, as well as a back seat to these new recruits.  They were ignored and poorly paid no matter whether they were overachievers, or average workers.  Management had goals that had to be met - so there were areas that were quite cutthroat.  Overall there were benefits that would somewhat make up for those that were put at the bottom of the barrel, however it isn't an environment that encourages older personnel to desire a continued career with the company.

Depending on the current job requirement, the day can wary appreciably. I have been with Juniper for 7 years and I have found it to be very supportive to employees' career and intellectual growth.
Typical day includes working on customer problems, analyzing the data and providing technical support, collaborating with multiple engineering departments in an effort to find a solution for the customer. Life is faced-paced, high learning and full of intensity. When you get tired, there are plenty of opportunities to relax you and get you ready to get back to work. Foosball and Pool tables are easily accessible, break rooms are full of snacks and necessary items to fill your stomach. Building is pretty sleek and state of the art. All in all, it is fun to be here.

I started with Juniper in Jan. 2016 for a short term project.  My manager was great at balancing work and home life.  Knowing my children were out of state he allowed frequent long visits home to visit them where I was allowed to work from home.  He helped me to gain experience in a career field I was having issues breaking into after graduation and worked with me getting personal time Forensic hardware.  I would have taken a full time position if would could have been and would have been offered.  

The whole company was very supportive and took a lot of interest in me and my advancement in this field.  

I chose to work 10 hour shifts and take a three day weekend.  We were allowed to make our own hours as long as we didn't go over our 40.  I could work half a day come home and head back at night if I wanted to.  Such amazing co-workers and management is fantastic.

Most presales engineers are teleworkers which offers many benefits and flexibility.  A typical day involves working with the sales team on current opportunities or identifying new ones.  Other activity involves managing existing customer relationships.  I’ve learned a lot not only in the evolving DC networking space, but also the campus and service provider space.   Juniper is an engineering company and the culture reflects this. The most difficult aspect of working at Juniper is understanding the broad portfolio offerings around enterprise, security, and service providers.  While this can sometimes be challenging, it was  also very rewarding and challenged everyone to be the best.

Overall Juniper is a great place to be, with an incredibly nurturing environment for both personal, and professional growth. Having no prior knowledge of the IT industry was not an issue as there is plenty of on the job training. It is one of the best team atmosphere's I have ever been a part of. Management leaves something to be desired. A majority of the job is cold calling and prospect finding. The one avenue everyone uses seems to utterly ineffective and oversubscribed. "Call Blitzes" only anger potential customers, and damage our image in the minds of end users.

I enjoyed my time of employment at Juniper Networks but had to leave due to lay offs and maybe one day I'll be able to return there. The people were good to work with and the atmosphere was great. I learned a lot there from many different people and departments, the management team is a good one who truly work with the employees and the co-workers made the team a great one.
I absolutely loved the cafe and the chefs, the food was fantastic and they were so cool with making up foods you would want if it wasn't on the menu...kudos to them!!!
I mostly enjoyed the fact that people there truly cared about each other and were there to help when needed and teach you if you needed to learn something more about the job.
