Former Employee2.4Nov 3, 2023A once great company that progressively lost its way with every new PE firm that acquired it.
Current Employee2.0Jan 3, 2024Constant pivots in sales strategy and market focus. New reps with greenfield accounts are expected to have same success as reps with tenure managing long-time customers. Unrealistic expectations for multi-million dollar deals to be closed within months.

Former Employee3.0Mar 15, 2024Very good WAN & application acceleration tech that will remain relevant for a long time. Observability products are good. A couple of product stumbles, and poor moves by a Cisco CRO. Company went backwards after that, delisted, the founder was exited (bad bad). Riverbed is still loved by many customers and partners, and I hope it rebuilds.

Current Employee2.1Sep 28, 2023Pretty poor experience. Very little inbound. RIFs every few months. Takes weeks to get quotes out. Legal/contracts/finance behave like the company is the size of microsoft. Leadership completely out of touch with market and customers. Some of the products are hot and there are a ton of decent people working there just not in mgt!
