Pros

Good culture (quarterly all hands meeting, fruit tuesdays, bagel fridays) and genuinely nice people are at the top of my list. The company is definitely a great place to work, and you never feel that the senior management is distant.

Cons

If you are fresh out of college, NetApp may not be the best place to start your career because you become easily satisfied and may never try to leave and challenge yourself. However, if your goal isn't to constantly seek new challenges, NetApp is a great place to be at.

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
