Pros

Hard working employees. In my 13 plus years at NetApp (Network Appliance) i worked with some of the brightest technical talent ever.

Cons

Most of the techies have been laid off or outsourced. NetApp is heavy with middle management, product managers and program managers. Most of these "managers" only generate email to each other and schedule meetings where the only action is to schedule another meeting.

Pros

The work was very interesting - don't underestimate storage software. Great coworkers - lots of friendly, family-oriented people. Beer bash every Friday. Really good work/life balance.

Cons

Too many projects spread out across too many time zones. Too many layers of management. Not enough internal opportunities for career advancement. Promotions for political reasons and not based on actual abilities. Layoffs of talented senior and junio people (don't worry, they all got jobs immediately at NetApp competitors down the street).

Pros

Great culture, flexible working hours, great benefits, above average pay in the bay area, and great management support

Cons

limited growth opportunities. Once you are in, it's difficult to grow your career in the company but this is typical in most large technology companies.
