Pros

Excellent market share and penetration of US Government market including DOD and many intelligence and other agencies, better than its larger global competitor EMC. Laid-back culture and trendy office environments and decor. International offices staffed by extremely bright technical professionals.

Cons

Very rigid policies in business development leaves NetApp unable to move quickly, especially in vibrant Asia-Pacific countries increasingly tech-savvy and with lucrative public sector opportunities. NetApp prefers decentralization and delegation to detriment of capitalizing when deals emerge and need to be seized quickly. Senior leadership "not ready for prime time" when it comes not only to seizing immediate opportunities but also to long-term sales prospects.

Pros

Smart middle managers with expertise. Co workers are generally nice and support each other, trying very hard to succeed in spite of a lack of resources and constant organization reorganizations.

Cons

Too many chiefs -- a very vertical organization. Little autonomy. No chance for advancement.or meaningful pay increases. Lack of sufficient staffing and funding. Cumbersome internal approval processes. Annual layoffs beating down morale.

Great place to work, I can't stress it enough how good the people are. You always feel that you are surrounded by and work with smart engineers

Cons

Management seems confused and don't drive engineering in the right direction. More focus and conviction in execution is needed. Course correction needed
