What does the leadership team need to get better at?
SF and manual tracking is immense. Daily KPI are unrealistic. Hours spent weekly on trainings, executive meetings, account planning, following design in vs lead out in SF and manual tracking of day-to-day activities make very little time left over to actually do the day-to-day activities.

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.

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.

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

There have been multiple times, where I have been offered way more, the benefits are just slightly out-weighing. However the edge is near.

There should be bonuses for work performed, especially without public stock options. A flat base salary and raise isn't as effective to drive behaviors as a bonus is.
Review from Sales Dept · Posted 13 days ago
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.

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 · Posted 15 days ago
They dont pay attention. They dont follow through. They dont listen. Their work is mid at best and broken on average. We are the Walmart of security.

Review from HR Dept · Posted 14 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 Sales Dept · Posted 14 days ago
Non-sales departments (such as support, I.T., and facilities) are afterthoughts at best. We are understaffed and grossly underpaid. While it's true that our departments are a cost and do not generate revenue, consider how many customers you can retain without us.
Review from Customer Support Dept · Posted 15 days ago
Management appears to focus primarily on numbers rather than employee's wellbeing. Employees are given the same targets despite having different responsibilities and workloads. Some policies feel unnecessary.

What would you most like to see improved at your company?
Salaries need to be improved drastically, hybrid working needs to be adopted as part of the new way of working. Barracuda are not competitive in these areas and are losing good people because of these reasons.
