Pros

Friendly working environment. People are candid. Culture matters.

Cons

Perks are not as good as those internet companies but kind of well played in the storage industry (or system level company in general), may be after VMware. Cooperation with team players in Bangalore is kind of pain sometimes due to the timezone. Plus some of them are very in-responsive to working emails making me think they're not working..Investment in India might be too much and not exactly worth it in my opinion.

Pros

NetApp is a prestigious company, working for this company will be a great resume boost if you cannot break into top fortune 500 companies. Relatively easy to get into NetApp. Competitive pay.

Cons

Frequent layoffs. Understaffed which could equate to higher expected output.

Pros

- Not the worst pay around - Opportunity for advancement if you get the right management - Good financial benefits (ESPP, 401k options, mega backdoor Roth) - The one thing GK is good at is driving up the company stock price. Hope you got yourself some RSUs

Cons

- NetApp hasn't made a new product in 10 years, so you'll be hard pressed to find development work that isn't directly tied to supporting what was built before then. - Very little innovation other than weekend-project-level AI tools - Health and dental benefits are not great - Upper management is completely detached from reality
