Pros

Flexible work hours, Work from home.

Cons

Lots of problems, I am yet to meet anyone I would call 'smart' in Bangalore centre. Most IITians do not consider it as a worthwhile option. Culture of pretend expertise and incumbent worship is huge. GPTW is no more than a blue pill for the semi drone types, which form the bulk of the engineering team. An aging technology stack keeps getting more and more bloated and ridiculously complex with time. No emphasis on code quality/conciseness, functions with 30k loc and tens of 'if' statements are considered 'routine' when the FOSS community scoffs at anything over 2k. Facing financial distress lately, reasons for which are easy to guess. With btrfs shaping up the way it is, Netapp can only go the HP way. Processes and working styles already are so heavy weight, they have measurable gravitational field. Compensation is inadequate.

Pros

Some co-workers are nice. Besides that, I cannot find any pros.

Cons

-package is not competitive - not diversity - very political,especially in the WAFL and Data Protection Group, managers don't care the product and their people, they only care how to look better in his/her boss's eyes and how to move up - most of the managers are not fair, those who have good personal relationship with the managers no need to work and get promoted easily - culture favors the person who can talk well, not the person who can work well but not good at talk
