Pros

Salaries are okay, Amenities at office world class, laptops and other devices world class

Cons

There are too many layoffs, negligible hiring, every team is stretched, work hours are extremely unreasonable, and projects are still being delivered at the cost of work-life balance. Few those who slog shoulder the burden almost always there are some who are just enjoying the ride, managers and management has no knowledge of technology, and a company which stands out in that its Technical Directors almost always lack technical depth. Found one TD who was worth his years others are all just waiting for retirement or layoff enjoying the high pay.

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

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.
