Barracuda Networks reviews

Great company culture, full bar downstairs, in-office gym, great people

Working at Barracuda gives you a wide range of opportunities to explore. At least on my time, you have a lot of freedom on what you want to work on. You're not micro-managed for the most part, and the culture is pretty laidback. Flex hours are a definite benefit, and nobody is making sure you're there every second you're supposed to be. That's not to say they won't notice if you're slacking, not showing up, or only putting in half your time. However, you often have the opportunity to specialize in whatever interests you, or branch out if you want to. Teams are fairly small and you end up knowing most of the people you work with, and you will definitely make friends you'll hang out with outside of work. Most products are fairly complex and use a wide range of technologies, so you're always learning. That's not to say they're all used *well* and sometimes products can feel stuck in the past, but you'll never feel like you aren't learning something new. You'll work with a lot of smart people with a lot of positive energy. There's a ping pong table, shuffleboard table, cheap vending machine snacks and drinks, bagel Wednesdays, Pancake mornings, etc. A fair amount of social events as well.
