One of the worst places I've ever worked - Anonymous employee Barracuda Networks Employee Review

Pros

There are actually very few pros to list for this company as far as I'm concerned... the location was decent (a fairly short commute for me), the atmosphere was pretty laid back (at least in some groups). I think most of the actual workers got along well. Their new location was far better to work at than their prev one (their orig location had to be seen to be believed).

Cons

Wow... this was truly one of the worst places I have ever worked! The paychecks were sometimes late, the pay rate was about 33% off my usual rate, but I had to get a job (anywhere) at the time. The benefits were ridiculous... stingy coverage for the employee, but only after a waiting period- and your family wasn't even automatically covered (at least when I was there). Occasionally the CEO would stop by our group and verbally chastise other group employees in front of our entire group... not very professional for a CEO who really should know better. And certainly not a very good example for other execs or group managers.

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.
