Thanks for reviewing us with your experiences and constructive feedback. NetBrain is an excellent place for engineers to come and work on a category-changing product that solves some really complex and important problems for enterprises. That being said, nobody should have to sacrifice rest, family time or personal wellness. Yes, our people work hard. That is what it costs to make a great product with no real direct competitors in the market, but we don’t want to burn people out and it’s important for all of our people to make time for the things they enjoy in life. We encourage any employees to reach out to the HR/Recruiting team if they don’t feel like they are getting a reasonable work life balance. We believe strongly that it’s possible to work hard but still have time for the truly great things in life, so please don’t hesitate to utilize HR if you’re not getting that time. We’ll be there to listen and help you retain or regain that balance! Thanks again for your time and for the review!

Thanks for your feedback! We love to hear the good and the bad as we continue to grow, because there's always room to improve. We really appreciate you mentioning the Toronto office. It's been around for almost two years and doesn't get nearly enough shine! We've hired a really fantastic team of people and our presence up there has grown rapidly in a short amount of time. Our company culture is very important to us and it extends well outside of our Burlington HQ. We appreciate the kind words and we are listening! Growing pains are a part of life for growing companies, but employee feedback helps us to minimize the pain and maximize the growth. There's nothing more important than that to our leadership team. Thanks again for sharing.

Hugely unethical company - Please Stay Away

Pros

Free lunches on Friday, snacks are always stocked

Cons

This company will drag you through multiple stages of interviews - in-house, on-site and video interviews with a salary expectation in mind and at the end of it all, give you a salary based on what they feel you're worth which is often 10%-20% lower than what you expected. In addition, I was encouraged to lie to potential candidates and tell them things which aren't true and rush people to sign offer letters that day (even though the letter says 7 days or 3 days to consider), while threatening to rescind the offer that same day, or the next day. You'll notice that the language in the positive GlassDoor reviews isn't typically the way people would talk, that's because in my opinion they are written by the marketing dept. In addition, we were told to flag negative reviews and solicit/encourage new employees to write positive reviews. While I was working here, my manager as it turned out was actively interviewing others to see if they could find someone better for the job and lied about it when I confronted them multiple times. This company expects 100% obedience from its employees and doesn't want you to talk back/point out things that don't make sense. They have no sense of ethics and are willing and do lie regularly to manipulate employees and rule through fear. There were also a number of inconsistencies about the company from the beginning. For example, they cited 2,300+ clients and over $300 million in revenues but that number was frequently changed/quoted differently. I don't know what the truth is but do yourself a favor and stay away!
