NetApp Raleigh reviews

Excellent growth, fantastic culture for technical people. Leadership is good, but unilateral. Company throws (or used to throw) great parties for customers and partners. There are lots of venues to learn and share information, but it really boils down to who you know and how much they trust you. Tenure doesn't mean much since most of the senior staff have been there for long times, but if you're willing to work hard to get ahead, there's lots of opportunities. You need to be able to recite technical documents verbatim to impress senior leadership for promotions or raises. Promotions won't come often, either, as they have more often gone outside of the company rather than promote from within any more, which is funny since that's how most senior leadership got to where they are.

NetApp is a great place to work because of the company culture. It maintains a culture similar to the startups of the dot com era. There are $0.25 sodas, casual dress code, ping pong, pool table, air hockey, weekly beer bash every Friday afternoon. Also, the executive management team is very accessible as well as responsive to all employees. Very open culture. Lastly, the benefits are great. Complete retirement plan, employee stock purchase plan, health insurance fully covered at a minimal premium to employees.
