Pros

Seriously, there are none. This company, once great about 3-4 years ago has been totally run into the ground by middle and upper management. If you see positives written about this company, there is no doubt it is being written by the management team. In my 20 years in this industry, I have never seen company run so badly. I cannot believe major changes have not been made at the top. Are the board of directors that blind? Unbelievable!

Cons

Upper management are the best spin masters in the world. They will lie right to your face and say or do the opposite the next day. When you read all the negative reviews about Barracuda, they are not employees that are just hammering back. This is real folks. This is why the company is up for a fire sale. Oh, and they will lie about that and say that is not the case and things are fine. One of my colleagues is in finance. So let me tell you, this company is in real trouble and if you are still here when they are acquired, you will get nothing. trust me...nothing. Get out now before they throw you in the street. The micro managing was the worst ever experienced in my career.

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.
