Cisco announced that it will lay off 1,300 people this afternoon.
Brad Reese blogs about the WAAS team as the organization with layoffs.
As CRN points out: "Reese received messages earlier today from two separate sources. One of them said, "Not sure if you know, but today Cisco dissolved its entire WAAS sales team. Painful."
Another said: "Inside Cisco knowledge, just laid off all Cisco WAAS engineers and sales people. Up to 1,600 will be laid off today. I am one of those affected therefore, like to remain anonymous."
