NetApp reviews about "upper management"

The upper management seems to follow the current social and financial trends more than focusing on the product and service.

Poor planning by upper management Constant fear of being impacted at the next round of layoffs

Too many management layers Too much dirty politics at the company Remote sites are taking advantage of upper management Need to concentrate on technical solutions If you are not a manager, your voice is not heard and not trusted!

Upper management is unaware of workload

Like all corporations upper management leaves a lot to be desired.

Lots of turnover within upper management stressful environment with lots of office politics. Okay work/life balance

- Mature technology with lots of sustaining work - Not any new projects - Too many managerial layers

Upper management internal issues causing constant churn in executives

Tools are clunky to use and don’t all talk to each other so sometimes you get different information. KPIs and KSOs tend to change each half, which is hard to keep up with. Because of this, commission pay is hard to understand and can sometimes be incorrect and you have to work with the Comp Team to get this corrected. There are also times where it feels that there is a big disconnect between upper leadership/management and the individual contributors. As an individual contributor, I find that there are a lot of new policies being put into place that slow down the effectiveness/efficiency of me doing my job.
