My goodness this is a refreshing watch. I hope that Arista truly operates the way that Ken is describing here. If they do, they'll be around forever and take more and more market share. Take care of the product and the stock price will take care of itself. If the network ain't working, nothing is. Make a good product and people will talk about it, more people will buy it, and literally everything else falls in line. Take care of people and those people will take care of you. Please never stop operating this way.....
I know this is an older thread, but this guy is the manager I always wanted. As most of us here. I'm a Cisco Engineer. Just looking into this product as I have heard there Support is top notch. Jay
I am really liking the mindset. Such a challenge to keep quality but making the team responsible, completely is really a great , yet seemingly difficult task, challenge. The key would be the people.consistently
How many times people are so afraid to disclose something not working or partial working at the final review? One reason is afraid of messing up business target, right? Quality people should be able to articulate the "state of quality"!
"Culture of Quality" is a very good idea, but keep in mind that Ken Duda owns the company he works for. Unfortunately, most companies are owned by shareholders, who only care about the increase in shares value at the end of next quarter... :-(

Great to see someone at the top of a networking company gets it when it comes to quality!
I have at least heard this five times and every time I hear, I am super inspired all again.
What a breath of fresh air!
This guy is brilliant! He gets how hardware and software should work together.
Yeah, How software and Hardware Engineered to work together , lol :). It's oracle's business model too:)
