“The road back to relevancy and profitability [for Avaya post-bankruptcy] is going to be long and arduous. Frankly, I don’t see the commitment and self-honesty to believe they can make it. They went from a position of market dominance to being passed by rather quickly. I don’t think that has truly sunk in. They’ve become that one friend that steers every conversation to how cool they were back in the day while everyone else is moving on.”
