Pros

NetApp has great software solutions. Mid-management has a lot of strong players. Good hours and compensation. Strong commitment to improving processes. Good benefits package.

Cons

Company lacking in direction with regards to third-party strategy, both around resellers and OEM. Having difficulty determining business strategy for cloud, transitioning to a SW-based model and commoditization of storage. Several stumbles along the way.

Pros

Amongst the top companies in the data storage industry = company stability.

Cons

If you'd ask me a year or 2 ago, I would have given the company 5 stars. But, as with most tech companies now, they've started to follow the trend of return to office, regardless of logic. There's little to no room for exceptions and the company would rather sacrifice productivity regardless if they know the hardships for people living in metros (one way commute to the NY or SJC office can take 2 hours one way!) - that and there's no commuter benefits. You have to pay out of pocket and live in fear of not receiving your bonus if you miss the "thrive together" quarterly requirements.
