Riverbed Technology

Is this your company?

Feels like a late 90's .com, only with competent leaders with a clear vision of the future. - Anonymous employee Riverbed Technology Employee Review

Pros

I've been a defense contractor and IT contractor for a decade, so I have a pretty good sampling of the good and the bad! Everything my past employers have done wrong, this place does right. It's a company that thrives on the motto of "we only hire rockstars." And they've done so, and it's worked beautifully. They dont just hire the managers or engineers that are fantastic on paper - you have to have a pulse, a personality, and social cohesion. They dont hire employees, they hire team members, and its a feeling you get from the first interview.

Cons

It's new, relatively young, and the stock has been volatile. All of that said, its not as bad as it could be.

Pros

Great technology across two platforms. One focused on the original flagship platform, WAN Optimization. The second platform uses the integration of technologies through previous acquisitions to provide a very robust and unified IT observability solution. The SaaS version of the latter has finally achieved FedRAMP accreditation which was sorely need for U.S. Federal sales.

Cons

I left a couple of years ago due to new leadership and it's deaf ear to the then federal sales team and needs to achieve sales goals without having Riverbed SaaS platform accredited to operate on U.S. Federal Government networks.
