Great Company Bad Middle Management

Pros

Great company to work for if your in the right department. The culture is not what it use to be but it still good. Work-life balance is great again depending on the department. A lot of good people to work with. Good Benefits!

Cons

The company has moved away from what made it great. For example Business Operations lacks true leadership. Fear used as a tool to get things done. Is more worried about covering up problems than actually fixing them. Some management is quick put a target on your back if your not inline with them. Yes, even if your proactive, solving problems, and good at what you do.

Pros

Great salary, benefits and bonuses. Also great technology to learn. Decent number of opportunities within the company to move to different roles over the course of several years.

Cons

The support organization lacks enabled leadership. Management has very little span of control up to the senior levels. This creates an environment where executive orders are passed down but then management is not enabled to effectively complete those goals. It also does not allow front line management the flexibility to make improvements where needed to retain top talent. Finally, there is a major degree of separation between those with the authority and those with the knowledge to implement effective change. Then end result is senior technical resources frustrated with neutered management.

Pros

You can always contribute to your hearts content. There is always an opportunity to *step* up... Pay is good. Expectations are high, but medium level performance is no punished. However, only stellar performance will truly appreciated. Doing your job is not rewarded. You must go above and beyond EVERY DAY to impress anyone. And NetApp always expects you to SUCK IT UP!

Cons

Unreasonably high-expectations. Sometimes, no good deed is left unpunished. If you try to be proactive sometimes, you will be left with more work/responsibilities and the same pay. It is almost impossible to get promoted, unless you know the right people and report to an office weekly. That is, in remote positions, work-from-home, you cannot expect a promotion, until you take it upon yourself to take a office position or just go to the office all the time.
