Pros

Pays well, good benefits. Excellent product to work on and learn from. Cutting edge of technology.

Cons

Expands and shrinks fast, and destroys peoples employments in a hear beat.. Sonus willing to convince someone to resign from a stable job of other company by offering a large Salary, then as soon as a their project or goal is complete, they layoff that person without any consideration. Very high pay, and highly not a trustworthy company at all. They shipped most of their positions off sure, and might higher people for a short period of time to correct their mistakes as they continue to ship jobs overseas.. This is a company to avoid. Do not get fooled by the high offers/salary,, check their long records of layoff the past two year under the new management, with a single goal; to ship most engineering and support jobs off-shore.

Pros

No pros left. When started it was an amazing place to work... then tanked real fast. The culture went from enthusiastic and fun to hate life and no direction whatsoever.

Cons

Downsides: Everything. The money is okay, but the quota the leadership team gave was ridiculously unattainable so commissions were poor. Do not waste your time here because you will soon be very disappointed. HR does a good job with benefits and outlining what they have in order, but once you get to work, you will have no clue what you're supposed to do. No matter how many times you ask leadership, they don't know. Or they'll explain it in a passive way that makes no sense. I think the leadership team is unhappy themselves but they won't quit because who would when they make as much as they do? They do not communicate with the employees well or at all. If you make the mistake in joining this company, advice is to ride the wave until you get let go. But if you want to be happy somewhere for the long haul, go somewhere else. Trust me.
