What are some of the best things about your team?

Everyone is helpful and willing to coach

What do you like best about the leadership team?

They are approachable and don?

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

All the executive leadership is pretty open and honest about what the goals are.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Product innovation is lacking. No new go to market strategy and stale rebranded technology. Being owned by a private equity killed all meaningful development.

What are some of the best things about your team?

Everyone is helpful and wants to do the best job they can. Takes the colleagues to train new people since upper management is spread too thin to do onboarding themselves.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Generally, Barracuda pays a below market rate at every level. If they gave more timely raises and cost of living adjustments it would go a long way. Overall expect to be paid 20% below market average.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Long term goal planning and expectation setting. Every year we shift our comp plans and communication is poor. It takes too long to set quota targets and we base next years goals off previous year's quota not actual sales. Increases go from 15% upward of 35% yoy.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Company does not take into consideration cost of living and inflation into raise pools leading to a lower than average wage on the West coast and higher than average wage in the South East. While we continue to grow as a company our wages have remained stagnant for years.
