How employees describe working at NETSCOUT
long term - sharing information is still very poor (due to tools used and due to will of different departments) becomes a little bureaucratic
Review from Engineering Dept
I have been employed here several years & have seen several good employees come & go because of issues beyond their control. It seems that the team at Corporate has taken a hard stance on the 5-day work week schedule that was implemented post-Covid, and it has cost us extremely talented individuals.
Review from Sales Dept
Good people to work for and with, we address an interesting problem set informatively and it's fun to be part of that
Review from Customer Success Dept
20-yr tenure; exceptional performance reviews; team leader 5-yrs ago, I was actively discussing a potential promotion w/ my manager. Today, I'm in the very same position because there's been zero room for advancement w/in my organization. We no longer talk about it.
Review from Sales Dept
Like anywhere there are good and bad apples. In my department in particular, it feels like we're constantly tasked with the same challenges and problems that never get solved. Unfortunately, I don't believe the department has any leadership which is a problem. It's demotivating at times.
