Pros

My coworkers at NetApp are probably the smartest group of employees I've ever had the fortune of working with. People who underperform tend not to stick around or are driven off. It's also probably the first place I've worked where the HR department isn't useless.

Cons

The hours are extremely long and there is a lot of time spent catching up with customers to respond to questions or resolve their problems. As the consultants are mostly based from home, there isn't a lot of camraderie amongst us. You often go for long periods of time without seeing your coworkers. A lot of time is spent on conference calls.

Pros

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.

Cons

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

Pros

- 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

Cons

- 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
