      Pros

      * Used to be a great company * Used to trust employees * Had some challenging work * Respected and cared about old timers

      Cons

      * Managers are gods, they are unchallenged and unaccountable * Only company where there is no feedback process for managers. Any employee cannot give feedback for their respective managers. * No process in place for deciding on promotions * Promotions given only on favoritism * Only priority of management is to get listed in great place to work surveys

      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
