Pros
Barracuda is one of many start-ups I worked at in my career, Barracuda is the most successful by far. The business was profitable from the beginning and it continues to be very profitable. The overwhelming success comes from leadership making great decisions on product directions and effective marketing of these products. Another important part of the success is customer support. Yes, we have hundreds of thousands of customers, and our customer satisfaction rate is close to 100%. If you want innovation, challenge and aspiration for success, you come join Barracuda. Barracuda values talent, loyalty and personal growth in every employee. Folks who are successful in technical support do get promoted into engineering to contribute at more effective level. Also, with Barracuda being the biggest producer of security appliances and services, our senior management still spends time with every employee at all levels. Employee's voice will be heard by the people who started the company.
Cons
Every successful company has its growing pain especially the growth is rapid.
