Positions in NJ (Stay AWAY)
Resident Engineer (Former Employee), NJ – May 15, 2013
Pros: company culture is good, people are very nice.
Cons: deceptive practices, not briefing potential/new hires on the problems with the customer, nj location
Large customer in NJ whom is absolutley horrible. Juniper places anyone they can in that area without telling them about the issues with the customer and how difficult they are. Stay away from that customer.

jnprcmnt – April 30, 2013

To my surprise I encountered the rudest interviewer yesterday from Juniper. He asked me how a technology term appears in my resume, that was mentioned to be "knowing thoroughly" in the job description. While I was trying to explain the technology in detail he suddenly stops me and tells me "looks like you are not fit for my team". I had explained to him this is a technology I am interested in, read it up and did some configuration on it and know the concepts. Then he drops the call without asking any other question. Please people document such cases, if an interviewer is having a bad day it is perfectly okay to reschedule the interview to a different day since they have the upper hand anyway, but it is very unpolite to be rude over the phone as an interviewer. I have been an interviewer and never have been such rude. Let us not encourage such culture in the valley.

Hi - I appreciate your comments. I'll be graduating from college with a degree in IT soon. I'd like to work there in Sunnyvale. But, I'm not sure where to begin. Can you point me in the right direction for new grads? Thanks!

Program Management Consultant (Former Employee), Denver, CO – January 24, 2013
I started out as a contractor and within 2 months I was hired to build the PMO and all its processes. I participated in all hiring of PM candidates and acted as a mentor for them - challenging in a dynamically changing environment.

Strong company trying to find its way back
Senior Manager International Sales (Current Employee), Overland Park, KS – December 14, 2012
Pros: strong se organization, high ote
Cons: no advancement, product quality and software quality issues
Good company trying to do too much too fast. They spent quite a bit of R&D dollars building products without a customer base resulting in great products with no home and quality issues for legacy products. Currently refocusing on quality and cutting on excess product lines. However, it will be a few years before Juniper is back in the growth stage.

Great mid/big size company, on the edge of becoming 2nd leader or not, lots of challenges, knowledgeful management
Compliance Engineer (Former Employee), Sunnyvale, CA – November 3, 2012
Pros: still small enough to spin to the right direction, knowledgeful top management, good work/life balance
Cons: commute horrible, some too-large ego personalities, short on founding
At the share/centralize organization, great top management to lead Jnpr out of lagging products for their markets. Still found sub-teams working too much in silo, and bridging efforts was causing waves. Lake of knowledge in some area, lagging on training.

Good company
Executive Assistant (Current Employee), Alpharetta, GA – September 12, 2012
Cons: short breaks, working with sales team
Completing calendar scheduling, checking email, working with customers and open to anything else that anyone should need.
My co-workers are great to work with, the hardest part of my job is setting up meetings for 4 or more Executives to attend and finding out when they are available at one time.

Working with the sales organization is my most enjoyable – more... part of my job. – less

Incredible opportunity and exposure to one of the best industries to be in
Inside Commercial Account Manager (Current Employee), Westminster, CO – July 13, 2012
Pros: benefits, catered meals at end of quarter, great people
Cons: call blitzes, middle management, experience is very similar to that in the movie officespace.
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 – more... 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. – less
