I think my management chain in engineering is excellent with a great balance of challenging us to perform well, delegating and not being overly command/deadline driven so that stress in manageable and projects realistic.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

I work partly from home, partly from the office. The office is a great place to interact with my co-workers. I feel challenged at work and given opportunities do things.

Leadership needs to get better at turning strategic intent into operational clarity. For engineering specifically, stronger product direction, earlier UX alignment decisions about what matters most so all can move quickly without constantly dealing with ambiguity downstream.

Review from Engineering Dept

Leadership, particularly in PM, need to be held accountable for the outcomes of their decisions. A name needs to be attached to each change in direction and each expansion decision and metrics set by which to measure the success of that decision and the person driving it held fully accountable.

Review from Engineering Dept

Focus on doing less. Constantly pushing numerous P0 initiatives is causing burn out.

Review from Engineering Dept

Having good ideas for product direction

Review from Engineering Dept

TRANSPARENCY!! We've had a massive turnover with the leadership team over the past few years. I have no idea what the company's goals are or if Barracuda is in a good place right now.

Review from Engineering Dept

The unlimited PTO allows me to balance work/life.

Good health care cost coverage which is a major reason I continue to work here.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

The HSA Health care contribution

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

i mean , good enough for someone who is starting his career in IT industry , and having a team like this fells like avengers , and whenever we get a new project our managers be like - avengers assemble , and then would collaborate and deliver quality of work.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

It is fairly competitive and good

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

more money would make me feel better

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

My salary has not kept pace with inflation, and from talking with friends I make half as much as some. My managers always seem to call the raise budget low. Even as I save the company money I see none of it. I feel that calling us owners is patronizing because we don't have the power an owner would.

Review from Engineering Dept

I don't feel undervalued from a salary perspective but from a recognition and sponsorship perspective. I've consistently contribute beyond my role through leadership, alignment, and execution. Stronger advocacy for my long-term growth and impact would help.

Review from Engineering Dept

The level of stress from the pressure to incorporate AI into everything, regardless of outcome or logic essentially should mean hazard pay.

Review from Engineering Dept

It doesn't matter which work amount someone is doing. There are no bonuses declared if you exceed expectations. As a result less motivation to do more.

Review from Engineering Dept

My team is very well versed in security and technology and willing to share their knowledge. Being able to learn from your team members is a valuable asset.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 3 days ago

Sharing tasks, open communication, looking to learn, propose innovations

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

Better product leadership. We've been listless for years.

Review from Engineering Dept

stop getting fired, clone yourself

Review from Engineering Dept

I've started noticing more and more headbutting within the team

Review from Engineering Dept

Eliminate BCC entirely, and several other groups

Review from Engineering Dept

My leadership wants me to succeed and recognizes my workload. Due to the culture of work/life balance, they update priorities and get the organization working on the right things at the right time. Building innovative products keeps me engaged and my team motivated.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 3 days ago

Consistent and respects engineering knowhow built over time rather that treating people as cogs and causing chaos

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

The company cares about the well-being of current employees

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

Review the compensation, hiring knowledgeable people from the beginning, and better perks.

Review from Engineering Dept

Focus on product, not profits

Review from Engineering Dept

Get much better in executing the growth plan. This will have a huge impact on the moral and mude.

Review from Engineering Dept

Besides pay and healthcare. Rules for days allowed to be worked from home should be consistent and not different for one department when it is completely unnecessary. Also why are some salaried employees working from 9-5 (8hrs) when others work 9-6 or 8-5 (9hrs).

Review from Engineering Dept

Address tech debt, cut fat

Review from Engineering Dept

Being able to solve problems quickly and efficiently makes me happy. I also really enjoy the comradery in the workplace when developing an innovative solution for new development.

Meaningful projects that advance customer and business

Lunch with my coworker friends at the company location. It makes the team feel much more motivated to help each other and trustful towards each other.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

friends and team , also talking to them and solving together

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

I love solving problems and shipping new things

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 4 days ago

Higher levels of leadership have lost the plot. The expertise and data that contradicts what upper levels "feel" should be done is simply ignored to the extreme detriment of morale.

Review from Engineering Dept

I do not feel valued at all. Based on my conversations, very few do. There's little accountability across departments. Processes change, no one is informed and it's not documented. Hard to get anything done. The company can't get out of it's own way and align business priorities and process.

Review from Engineering Dept

We are doing too much without priority alignment across teams and business units. There is no accountability on Business Systems or IT teams.

Review from Engineering Dept

More listening from leaders on what can be improved, rather than all direction coming from the top down

Review from Engineering Dept

More supportive environment created by leadership.
