Pros

This company has a history of doing great things and there are still some employees who embody the old NetApp. If you are brought in by a former manager, especially from Microsoft or Cisco, you will be fine and red carpet will be rolled out for you. If you are cool with risk, this is the company for you. The company is not afraid of getting sued!

Cons

The products are falling behind competitor, especially compared to Pure. Leadership is horrendously bad and getting worse. They hire their friends and clear out old employees, literally blaming leadership failings on "needing to get the right people in".

Pros

Good company, management generally supports the employees, good work-life-family balance

Cons

Recent restructuring layoffs were random. NetApp recently went to a "laddering" evaluation system that relied too much on management perception and not facts.

Pros

Great office location Collaborative team and coworkers with product resolution for customers Ongoing learning new technologies in the field DEI and options for more unique perspectives

Cons

NetApp has a tendency to have proprietary knowledge so it's difficult to confirm if this can translate well to other companies/industries While there is DEI and more the office can have a tendecy to have people state things that are flat out harmful to others this isn't covered and ignored Company has lots of layoffs and it's difficult to guage when this may happen and if you'll be impacted or not
