Vantaggi

I had an amazing team and an amazing manager. Many smart engineers. Pay was good (too good, can't match it easily).

Svantaggi

Quarterly reorgs - most didn't affect the workers directly but multiple layoffs have happened in the past several years. Canned projects. The leadership doesn't seem to understand the market and shifts too often, wasting valuable resources. Certain genders and races are less likely to get promotions. Heavily biased. CEO and leadership has no business talking politics and officially espousing political viewpoints. CEO has a way of demoralizing the company with every speech he makes. No matter how good a quarter or a year was, it wasn't good enough. Diversity has a way of overlooking the best; distribution of the employees is skewed relative to local population. Quality team was mostly laid off; quality is BUILT into products, not tested in.

Vantaggi

NetApp is a prestigious company, working for this company will be a great resume boost if you cannot break into top fortune 500 companies. Relatively easy to get into NetApp. Competitive pay.

Svantaggi

Frequent layoffs. Understaffed which could equate to higher expected output.

Vantaggi

- Not the worst pay around - Opportunity for advancement if you get the right management - Good financial benefits (ESPP, 401k options, mega backdoor Roth) - The one thing GK is good at is driving up the company stock price. Hope you got yourself some RSUs

Svantaggi

- NetApp hasn't made a new product in 10 years, so you'll be hard pressed to find development work that isn't directly tied to supporting what was built before then. - Very little innovation other than weekend-project-level AI tools - Health and dental benefits are not great - Upper management is completely detached from reality
