      Interesting work, but highly disfunctional

      Pros

      Culture is amazing at NetApp from the HR team to the janitors it's rather nice place to work. They take care of their employees, and truly value community service.

      Cons

      The growth path is just not there. People either have to die or get fired for any real growth paths to show them selves. The dream that you are sold on as you enter the work place is just that "a dream." It very much a stepping stone to something better not a full on career choice. Pay is not that great, and they truly are the feel of a 6billion dollar company. This companies worth is truly just a resume builder.

      Pros

      Good work life balance. Awesome people to work. Lots of growth opportunities for engineers. High visibility. Reduced politics compared to other companies.

      Cons

      Outdated salary range. They *Must* have to consider bay area salary ranges otherwise they will lose talent for sure. I also got this feeling from my other colleagues as well.

      Pros

      The much vaunted NetApp culture still exists, perks are great, pay is good and the company really does have some moral grounding and a strong set of core values. Work life balance is generally good and executive level management is decent and respected.

      Cons

      Several factors are working to destroy the NetApp culture: the current economic climate, the company's growing headcount, ineffective middle management, etc. The focal (review) process is not equitable; stack ranking is very much a reality here, and if you are fortunate enough to find yourself on a high performing team it could cost you. From an execution standpoint the old "Fast, Simple, Reliable" NetApp is rapidly eroding, mostly in the simplicity area. ONTAP is immensely complex, and the company only gives lip service to simplifying it. Manageability is terrible, in part due to that group being poorly run but also because the ONTAP group refuses to acknowledge their own (large) part in that being the case. Geographic diversity within many teams is a problem as is an over reliance on the Bangalore site, which produces products of questionable quality.
