Pros

I've worked for many Silicon Valley companies over the last 15+ years ranging from high flying start-ups to large category leaders. Out of them all, Riverbed has the best culture I've ever experienced. A work-life balance that's truly achievable and a workplace with no ego's or politics. Our leaders are not only super smart/dynamic but also very down-to-earth, approachable, and fun to be around.

Cons

Not really a knock on the company but an acknowledgement that our evolution from a single product market leader (WAN optimization) to a >$1B multi-product solution play has been challenging. That said, I think we're well positioned for an even brighter future.

Pros

The benefits are actually really good

Cons

Everything else is bad. No career progression, no raises and the environment is incredibly petty and toxic. Revenue at this company isn't going to improve and they've already gone bankrupt at least once that I know of in the last few years.
