Pros

Work with some pretty interesting folks, privately held company so they do what they want and if you happen to be in a management position or an engineer role they take good care of you.

Cons

Lack of career ladder, no matter what is listed in the employee handbook don't be fooled. Barracuda has a rock solid business model but they can continue to rotate in fresh bright tech support folks until they catch on that this isn't going anywhere.

Pros

- plenty of work to do, including learning opportunities - some really good and talented people to work with - salary okay; probably "good enough" if you're just starting out - benefits average to slightly sub-par - flexible hours (which should be the norm in Silicon Valley) - company is doing well, selling lots of products -- no danger of going OOB

Cons

- sometimes too much work to do, often with not enough resources - for every good & talented person, there are a couple of dead-weights - compensation can be as stingy and rare as with many financial things at the company - no place to sit, no place to park -- both main office locations are full-to-bursting with no plan to deal with it -- what's management thinking? - privately-held, i.e. no employee stock plan
