Pros

Very stable environment with positive long-term growth over the past 30 years. No one normally leaves the company for another position cause the benefits are good and company is stable.

Cons

BIG sized company now through all the acquisitions over the years that some folks get lost in the numbers. As noted above, no one leaves so growth opportunities are there, but limited.

Pros

Like most other companies that suck, the only pro next to maybe a handsome salary would be the personal relationships you are able to build with your teammates through (unrecognized) hard work.

Cons

Awful leadership starting with the CEO. Heavy politics and I mean, disturbingly unethical. A company that bandaid fixes. Limited growth opportunities based on who in leadership you are able to schmooze. Lack of accountability is in NetScout leadership's DNA. Those who have positive things to say about NetScout on Glassdoor are the ones who are part of the NetScout players club.
