Pros

The core development group has been performing miracles. The team worked very hard to understand the nature of network engineer’s daily work. The product is designed to meeting the core need for network administration, automation, and troubleshooting. NetBrain’s innovative technology positioned it as the clear leader, and is beyond compare. In working with the core technology team, I had the opportunity to know CEO. He is a very kind and sincere person and lead by example. He is insightful, purpose driven, yet a very humble person. This is a clear big advantage to a technology company: CEO is a genius in the network engineering field and is a genius on technology overall. He is using his expertise to cruise the ship to the right direction. In my personal view, the combination of a team of very gifted network engineers, the cutting edge technology, and the vision of the senior leaders well positioned the company to be one of the star high-tech companies in the area. The nimble management of business activities is very efficient. Many of the huge companies are too large to be efficient. Instead, the NB team gets on to the core points instantly, and is every effective in executing the core mission. The company respects employees as individual contributors. In the team where I worked, everyone are encouraged to speak out their views. Consequently, the debate has always been very active, and the final design has the blend of all individual contributor’s ideas. I see clear synergy. Snack is ordered, so tired employees can find their favored snack in the ‘treasure island’ and rejuvenate themselves. Lunch is ordered every Friday for all employees. The office environment is gorgeous. I have worked in companies inside the city, where space has always been an issue. At NetBrain, the offices are spacious, and are totally renovated. If you enjoy windows views and open spaces, you will like the NetBrain Offices. I cannot speak for other team. However among the teams whom I have chance to work with, I only see hard working sincere and very capable professionals.

Cons

The company is predictably to go IPO. While exciting, you can foretell there is lots of work ahead of each of the core teams. Workload can be heavy within certain functional area. Good thing is, the company is hiring more smart people to ensure everyone’s work and life balance.

Thanks for reviewing us and providing feedback on your experience over the last 3-4 years here! As a company, we're definitely united in our mission to grow NetBrain and serve our customers in solving problems they struggled to solve previously in their networks. It's a mission that we're passionate about, but we recognize how important time outside of your job is with family, hobbies and other loved one. Work-life balance is extremely important. Yes, many jobs have peaks and valleys and times that get busier than others, but we truly do focus on total wellness, It's great to see that you and others who have reviewed us are able to recognize that. I'd love to offer some insight on your feedback about coding, but I'm sorry to say that I don't have quite enough information to do that. I can tell you that we have a robust Research & Development team that makes up just a shade under 30% of the company and we are always focused on innovating and keeping the product well ahead of any competitors in the market. If you have any more specific feedback, please do share it with leadership. If you feel like your feedback hasn't gotten the attention it needs, reach out to your People Experience Business Partner. The People Experience team is always available to support you and help your messages reach the right channels. Thanks again for the feedback!

Pros

Leadership sets consistently ambitious goals that keep everyone motivated and focused. ;)

Cons

NetBrain talks a big game about innovation and leadership, but my experience was the opposite: bloated management, poor communication, and a culture that felt more focused on appearances than execution. The leadership under the CEO came across as disconnected from employees and customers alike, with constant churn, unrealistic expectations, and little accountability when things went wrong. What’s most disappointing is seeing major firms like Blackstone associated with a company that, from the outside, looks far more polished than it actually operates internally. The product promises efficiency, but the organization itself often felt inefficient, reactive, and overly political. Overall, I would not recommend working with or for this company unless major leadership and cultural changes happen first.
