Symantec Employee

"I worked at Symantec from 1991 (as Software Engineer on Norton Utilities 6.0) to 2007 (Technical Director on pcAnywhere). Symantec changed dramatically over that time - first growing rapidly through a number of acquisitions, then consolidating around "security". Overall, Symantec was a great place to work. At the end of my tenure, I think it was having trouble finding its identity."
