Pros

Great bunch of employees. You can, typically, run your territory like it's your own business. Decent company sponsored events. Excellent growth potential (see cons).

Cons

Lack of direction from upper management. Changing the core values now that the board has ousted the former CEO. Comparatively low pay for the sector. They've built their business by hiring employees with little to no experience in this arena. The pay reflects this as well. They reward hard work with job titles and little to no additional compensation. Employees rotate out at about 12 months because they realize they can be making 20-60% more at a similar company. Office gossip here is like playing a game of phone in second grade. By the time the story gets back to you it's been so blown out of proportion it can hardly be called the same info. All levels of management are guilty of this as well.

Pros

There was no good, intro is good and the company has good departments but in the US rather than the EMEA SE has a lot of development that needs to be made.

Cons

There is no training provided by the team or communication among the team, they indicate that you will get training, salary rise, but is all a lie. Was in fact also taken pressure by having team meetings stating how you should improve and what help you need, but the priority in the product training is poor or none as they avoid you. EMEA Manager David Lomax is a good manager but due to the insight from the other members who have no managing experience and rathers spend more time with university than work it conflicts with other members when you need the help. Left the company due the the lack of team work, and poor conduct.

Pros

Things get done here faster than anywhere else I've seen. Barracuda isn't busy at the top, so theres plenty of room to advance. Each and every employee has the ability to shine, and impact the organization. Low, low employee turnover.

Cons

Small company Still growing Benefits are working their way at becoming superior to most in the industry. Most people doesn't know they exist yet.
