Benefits are iffy

Pros

So far there seems to be talk of innovation and quality/competitive products, but the company culture around evolving seems to be slipping when it comes to execution. Great place for new hire talent, but tough to feel appreciated if you are new and have career tenure.

Cons

Immature preparedness and investment in understanding customer environments to provide solutions vs just the next thing on the rotation. PTO policy is ancient at best and a big detractor, overall benefits are not very competitive for a mature technology company.

Pros

They paid on time, I received my RSUs.

Cons

During my time at the company, I feel that my career growth potential was not fully realized. Despite my dedication and commitment to my role, I was not presented with opportunities for advancement that aligned with my skills and aspirations. This experience has left me with a sense of unfulfilled professional development. I believe that my qualifications and contributions could have been better leveraged, and I regret that my time with the company did not result in the career progression I had anticipated.

Pros

- Nice benefits - Fairly competitive pay - Good WLB - Tech stack is mostly up to date Had lots of flexibility here and was mostly happy with my day to day work. Was never too demanding and was able to maintain a life outside of work very easily. Management was flexible with vacation time and sometimes granted extra vacay time for getting big projects out the door. Not a lot of legacy tech, feels like we stayed up with industry standards

Cons

- Constant churn, very chaotic - No vision or direction - Unstable (layoffs frequently) - Minimal R&D - Bad management - Huge communication gaps in organization I worked on 4 different products in the 5 years that I was at NetApp. Management was constantly ripping the rug out from us and moving us to the hot new product. Could be really jarring at times especially after getting comfortable with something new. Layoffs happened 3 times while I was there, I was effected as well (severance is solid though fwiw). Company is surviving off legacy products and rolling the dice every 2 years or so on 10+ different product lines to see if something lands (usually with no success). Long story short, it's a good paying easy role with solid WLB. But career growth is difficult here and the work is really chaotic.
