in the service provider market juniper and arista seem to be king. There is very little on the market that beats an MX series router when looking for a network core for example.

in the enterprise, ubiquiti and HP seem to still be quite relevant. The amount of HP procurve gear in use is rather large.

I learned MX and JunOS mid-career. Routing protocols are solid and I much preferred the configuration over Cisco IOS especially for things like BGP, ISIS, routing policy, prefix lists, etc.
