Decent company to work for

Pros

Good work-life balance. Company appears stable with good diversity of products. Salaries commensurate with industry averages.

Cons

Over-reliance on outsourcing. Internal processes are a bit tedious. The products aren't that exciting to work on but at least are in the forefront of technology.

Pros

Netgear is a unique place where you can develop your career in a dynamic fashion that fits with your individual interests. Lots of opportunity to work across department lines and take on new roles/responsibilities. Definitely a place where you can learn a lot. Any employee can have a large impact on the organization, despite it being a global company. This makes for a satisfying work experience. Salaries are competitive or better than average. Performance is rewarded.

Cons

Employees need to be able to manage themselves (not for everyone).

Pros

Learning oppurtunities to fight for each and every day

Cons

Netgear Culture says no to Sports, Team Outing and Fun at work. People sitting in China makes policies for Bangalore India with no input from Indian Local agencies. Repetetive work and no appreciation of the limitless time you give in to your work. HR and Admin team in Bangalore are of no use either and huge attrition at Netgear Bangalore means the work culture is going from bad to worse. Netgear Management in US as well don't care for Netgear Bangalore. They keep promising the changes that they will bring in but nothing ever happens here or even if it happens, it is so late that it is nearly ineffective since people have already left the Compnay by then.
