Barracuda Networks

Is this your company?

Was asked by the company to write a review bc of the poor ratings…. I hope they weren't expecting me to lie. - Anonymous employee Barracuda Networks Employee Review

Pros

Barracuda was one of the best places to work. It was actually rated one of the top 25 companies to work for years ago, however things have changed, for the worst. Barracuda USED to be a great place to work and learn while having a good time with some of the best people around. But those days are in the past. The only pros of working here now are the free lunches, although I'd rather see a pay raise then have them feed me.

Cons

Where do I begin? First off, they have no value in their employees at all. The company expects you to invest your time and energy to help them be successful, but the company does not invest in their employees no matter how hard you work or how long you worked there. They will spend ridiculous amounts of money on entertainment to make it seem like things are great and fun when they should really be using that money to give pay raises to their hard working employees. Everyone talks about it, and would rather have a raise then attend a lavish parties and events. The morale is down, everyone is unhappy, and a lot of people have been leaving but the company does not care as long as they are making profits. I guess this is what happens when you go public and it's time to start looking for a new job.

Pros

Work/Life Balance, Flexibility of schedule and a strong team feel amongst the SA Team.

Cons

Product functionality, vision of leadership team, stale solution set and very difficult to meet quota since you're covering 15+ AE's. You spend a lot of time trying to "save" customers vs. actively selling.
