Smart People. Great Technology. Lots to Learn. No shortage of work. Nice surrounding living area. Relaxed work environment. Flexible Hours. Decent compensation. Free beer.

Growing process-oriented culture hampers innovation. Constant fighting of battles to obtain permission from peer engineering groups for project go-ahead. Not enough heads to tackle the massive work charter.

Not a great place to work

Business Outlook

Pros

Work place and environment is okay. Beer bash and soft drinks for free.

Cons

- The Bangalore center is predominantly involved in maintenance and low end QA work - The work culture resembles a IT services company than a product company - Air is thick with politics with a very thick layer of top management. - Most of the top management in India have got a level higher promotion in Netapp as compared to other organizations like Cisco, HP, EMC, Dell and others - Performance appraisals are a farce. Cronysim and Sychophants have a field day in the company even if they have brought nothing of value. - Layoffs and Organizational changes are very frequent and there are not based on performance. Most teams who were doing product development work with significant ownership have been laid off and the residual teams are into low end maintenance and QA work - HR is rude and arrogant and aligns with top management rather than employees. Candor is tolerated and people who have concerns are slowly made to leave.
