NetBrain Technologies Reviews

Pros

NetBrain is a great fast growing company. I have been here for more than three years and during that time, I had phenomenal opportunities for professional growth in my role.

I looked through negative reviews that appeared within the last two months and was surprised to find the writing style and tones of the reviews strikingly similar. I found it suspicious that many of the phrases or specific wordings are the same...

Here are my views on NetBrain:
● 40% growth year after year is not super star performance, but still very strong.
● Leadership and management can always improve as I have seen over the last couple years, but the company’s impressive growth shows that the current management is doing well.
● NetBrain’s financial statements are clean and successfully audited by one of the big Four accounting firms. The rumors about company GAAP revenue is not only baseless but also malicious.
● Sales bookings is one of the metrics that NetBrain measures its performance. The definition of sales bookings I found online is “The Sales Bookings metric measures the value of bookings over a given time period, where a "booking" is a won, signed, or committed sale. It's important to note that a booking isn't necessarily invoiceable until you have delivered the product or completed the required services.” The sales bookings metrics used at NetBrain exactly follows this definition. Sales bookings is not GAAP revenue. I suggest negative reviewers about NetBrain’s sales bookings practice get educated on this.
● NetBrain is not a start up any more, but still small enough to adjust and change as needed. As the world changes, companies will adapt. Less red tape here than some other companies. Over time, the good changes stick and the bad ones are replaced. I have participated discussed changes with my team and understand why they are needed for improvement.
● I look around and see a company full of A players. My coworkers are not only smart, but they also have great attitudes and some will be my friends for a lifetime.
● There's a great collaborative culture that allows me to walk over to resolve issues with different departments or come up with new innovative ideas with my coworkers.
● I don’t see unhealthy amount of attrition. The job market is very hot, yet we are able to hire at a faster pace.

Advice to Management

Keep up the good work!

Pros

: I am working at NetBrain for 3+ years and this is my first job after school. I would like to say that no company in the world is perfect or is a good fit for everyone. During the past 3+ years, I learned a lot of new skills and had fun working with my team. I am happy with my career growth at NetBrain.
NetBrain is growing really fast during the past several years, so there are some growth pains that all the fast-growing companies encounter. But as far as I can see, the senior management team and the middle management team are listening to the employees and working together to improve and grow the company.

Pros

Customers love our technology. No real competition.

Pros

Decently successful despite the leader

Advice to Management

Hire a real CEO and COO, and I guess a CFO now. Ask yourself why everyone is leaving?

Pros

Friendly coworker.
Good location with lot of places to eat near by.
Basketball court rental.
Pingpong table. Free Gym.
Free snack, fruits and beverage.
Free Friday lunch.

Product is outstanding in the industry and has lots of potential. Many of the features are quite innovative. As a software developer, there are lots of challenges to take on and lots of new opportunities to get hands dirty. I'm very impressed by how fast the team adapts to the new technology and architecture. The company is still in need of experienced developer and architect in the domain of machine learning, parallel processing, task scheduling, website operation...

Pros

None. Read all the other negative reviews and then turn and run away!!

Advice to Management

Get a clue.

Pros

- Free lunch on Friday
- Some of the managers were great until they decided to leave the company.
- The product itself isn't too bad. It's just there is a ton of competition now and usually, the software releases are pushed to customers WAY too early.

Advice to Management

N/A

Pros

Lot of opportunities for growth if you are fresh out of college

Friday Lunch is an added bonus

Advice to Management

Make up your mind and define the product and then act on it. STOP making changes every 6 months!

Pros

Awesome Solution, great technical staff

Advice to Management

Replace sales admin group

Pros

I'm only a few weeks in so if I uncover anything more I'll keep you all updated. My experiences so far have been great.
- Location: Burlington has a lot going on so there's that, but for me it is great that there's an express bus that goes from alewife to network drive. It's 30 minutes (bus 351)
- Benefits & such- I'm happy with the compensation and benefits package- it's competitive and more than reasonable. Free coffee is actually good, and there's snacks and free lunch on fridays (catered, also tasty)
- Culture- So far there's been a culture focused on inclusivity. Everyone has been welcoming and happy that I've joined the team.
- Interview process- mine was a little drawn out but they made some changes on the recruiting team and are focusing on streamlining and speeding things up. I was a little uncomfortable trying to make decision due to some of the negative reviews on here, so I asked to shadow for a day. This isn't the norm but my new manager wanted to make sure this was a good fit for both of us and made it happen. I appreciated the flexibility and concern for my needs

The biggest pro for me is that my job is helping to launch an insights team that will open communication lines internally and with users. If ideas and feedback fell on deaf ears before, the company is making serious efforts to change that.

Advice to Management

Continue to foster an inclusive family-like environment by putting employees and customers first. Also continue to encourage innovation and motivation, as that's the key to creating great products and happy people.
