Pros

If you like autonomy, this is the place for you. They absolutely will not hold your hand.

Cons

The review headline was from the CTO in response to valid criticism about not feeling supported or communicated with through what's been a less-than-stellar acquisition process, resulting in heavy turnover and low morale. Apparently reminding everyone that we'll be making a massive profit for the company that the average workers will only see a tiny fraction of is their idea of encouragement. Tone deaf is an understatement, but at least there's no ambiguity in being seen as a means of production and not an actual human person. You'll have maybe 5 days of actual PTO at your discretion because NetApp requires you to take PTO during their mandatory, company-wide shutdown weeks in July and December. Hope you weren't planning on living outside of work.

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.
