"Juniper continues cartoonist at the door
4 March, 2009 - Luc Blyaert
Kevin Pope was five years drawing cartoons for Juniper Networks, but his job is now for the ax. Long time the drawings of Pope a witty attack on Cisco.
Kevin Pope began in late 2003 with his cartoons, then barely knew what networking and telecom, but has been thoroughly trained. "I could do what I wanted, was only able to show that the Juniper products were better or why the equipment of the competitors were undermined," says Kevin Pope to Light Reading.
Not everyone loved the cartoons, some of them were unprofessional. But they were regularly forwarded by network engineers. Especially when the Pope got out of Cisco solutions, they were popular. Examples can be found here: http://layer8problem.blogspot.com/2009/01/juniper-cartoons.html
There was an end to demand from Juniper CEO Scott Kriens. It was apparently a good friend of Cisco John Chambers. "John Scott told me that they are funny, but asked whether there is less of what can be published," says Pope. That is not bitter that he may not sign for Juniper. "Ultimately, five years is a very long period.""
