Pros

The open culture and great people are the greatest reason to work at NetApp. Most people are very good at their jobs. Another reason to work at NetApp is that there are loads of exciting projects going on in all groups. There are lots of opportunities to be part of good projects.

Cons

Career advancement is individual's responsibility. Career advancement opportunities are limited. Several groups prefer to hire from outside rather than grooming talent from within. The company is going through growing pains that can be good or bad. Sometimes the processes keep changing or new processes are put in place imposing large overheads without clear benefit. I guess that's part of growing up.

Pros

Reasonable salaries. No explosive growth ( means no explosive contractions ). Effort is made to communicate to employees, though poorly.

Cons

Poor translation of company goals down to the employees. Poor 401k matching Worthless stock options Management still using 1980 and 1990's models for performance and goal setting ( antique )

Pros

Technology-oriented, leader in the industry. Good pay despite hearing tons of gripes, still has very good benefits. Small Silicon Valley culture still present for us old folk.

Cons

Cronyism has been rampant lately, recruiting poor, big company attitude seems almost welcome by many. Promotions are inconsistent (dumb people getting better jobs, good people being passed over repeatedly) Stock awards have dropped to maybe one-tenth of what they used to offer (used to get 2000 options for a good job, now you get 200)
