Pros

Once upon a time was a great work environment with lots of smart people. Now its a nice place to coast if you're looking for a 9 to 5 where the checks don't bounce (yet).

Cons

Upper management became disconnected. Fired off all of the old guard red wedding style and sold of several product lines. Then, made the mortal sin of buying a company and trying to "integrate" it with a swath of legacy products that nobody understood.

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.
