Pros

Low pressure environment, can work from home once a week. Really good ESPP program. Everybody gets options.

Cons

New policies are being implemented which are no longer employee friendly. There was a new policy implemented recently that says that employees who haven't completed a full year at the time of the December/May review have to wait for the next cycle. For some people who just missed the review cycle because of their start date, they have to wait a full one and a half year for an increment. 401k match is not good Health insurance is expensive compared to other companies No cash bonus, get stocks instead which take forever to vest Have to commute to city, no reimbursement for commute

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.
