They are gone now that Oracle is buying them. But for all its yakking about being an innovation leader, Sun had the absolute worst internal systems. Much of my time was spent cutting and pasting information from three different forecast/revenue systems into a spreadsheet, so my manager could send this to the VP! I was a $280K/year account manager, and wasted time on items like this!
You can thank the "pony-tailed" wonder for really making Sun a crappy place. The low-pay (compared to the industry) was compensated by stock option appreciation. 'Johan Schawatzen-hammer' drove the value of the stock down by 76%!! All of my non-restriced options were under water. My restricted options were worth a few hundred dollars - hardly a motivator.
Glad Larry will get the company and tear it into little pieces!
