Pros

Good learning to improve your skills

Cons

Traditional company with old management. They have too many VPs, Directors and Managers. So they are in high operation cost which now become a problem to the company. You only get promotion if top management likes you, not because you have good performance nor contribution.

Pros

While NETGEAR has traditionally been a hardware company, we're expanding into software. I've been with the company more than 10 years. There is always a new and interesting challenge. I feel my contributions make a big difference. I'm a woman, and the NETGEAR management has been very supportive while I've juggled work and family.

Cons

We're currently 100% WFH. I'm probably the only person in Silicon Valley who doesn't like WFH, but I miss the easy interaction with colleagues.

Pros

Good pay, benefits, etc. Work mature employees usually left alone. Frequent surveys to determine what actions are needed to make its employee's work environment better and attempts to. Made a noticeable effort to hire with more diversity. Made big changes for the Covid Pandemic to ensure it's employee's safety like closing office, WFH, providing supplies and equipment, frequent online activities and meetings to avoid disconnect.

Cons

Fast pace high pressure environment. Schedules constantly shortened without notice. High expectations for results but that is the trade off with then top notch support. Like most companies, a few people there reaping the benefits and contributing very little.
