Pros
-Free lunch and a lot of young people trying to make it in the IT industry. -The bar in the basement is fun and I've met a lot of good friends from work. -Everyone knows Barracuda based on the HUGE marketing budget.
Cons
I appreciate that the company has a track record of hiring bartenders and baristas that are promoted up but when there are entire teams of people that have no idea what they're doing or what a real software company does you're going to have problems. -The majority of the management layer is incompetent or doesn't care. -Only the people at the very top are making money, everyone else is take it or leave it. -Can't keep good engineers. You will be constantly apologizing for buggy, half baked products. -Yes men and butt kissers do well... everyone else can keep opinions to themselves. -Constant turnover as a side effect of below industry compensation. -Parking.
