Barracuda wins Best Leadership Teams and Best CEO for Diversity awards

We’re excited to share that Barracuda has been again honored by Comparably and has been recognized as one of the top 100 large companies with the best leadership teams including the CEO, executives, and direct managers. Barracuda ranked 86 for this year’s Best Leadership Teams award, which is based on how employees rate and approve of the job their worldwide leadership team is doing. Additionally, Barracuda ranked 96 for this year’s Best CEOs for Diversity award, which represents the top-ranked CEOs, based solely on anonymous sentiment ratings from employees of color on Comparably.com in the previous 12 months.

Comparably Awards are derived from 15 million sentiment ratings anonymously provided by current employees across 70,000 companies about their workplaces in multiple categories on Comparably.com during a 12-month period. Winners are then determined based on 16 core workplace metrics, ranging from work-life balance and leadership to compensation and career growth.

“I want to express my gratitude to all our employees who embrace diversity and contribute to the inclusive culture we have at Barracuda,” said Hatem Naguib, CEO at Barracuda. “Their passion, collaboration, and relentless pursuit of excellence have set the foundation for our success. Together, we have created a workplace that celebrates differences and leverages them to build an incredible culture at Barracuda.”

“Our leaders embody Barracuda’s values of driving innovation, taking ownership, and delivering outcomes, and they inspire their teams to do the same,” said Diane Honda, Chief Administrative Officer, Global Head of HR, and General Counsel at Barracuda. “We understand the importance of developing strong leaders at all levels of the organization, and we are honored to receive the Best Leadership Teams award — based on our employee feedback — for a second year.”
