Pros

Opportunity to work with lots of smart people, lot of appreciation for driving initiative. Opportunity to take up different career path, grow with a fast growing company.

Cons

Some incompetent people do manage to get into leadership positions & it takes a long time to get rid of them especially in India.

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
