NETGEAR Marketing reviews

NETGEAR is not a one-size fits all work environment. The Executive team challenges each individual to succeed and to some that is uncomfortable and maybe frightening. Every employee contributes to the success of NETGEAR, which could be nerve-wracking that your work could actually impact the stock price, but the management team is there to help as long as you’re communicative. Do not get me wrong, it does get stressful and it is a challenging place to work, but that’s because NETGEAR is in the market to compete. Their success has been built on innovation – heck they may have invented the word innovate – and for those who struggle with how to bring that level of work to their day-to-day, it may be dificult. But, my advice is to be communicative with your management team before you get too stressed, so they can help pave the right path. This has worked out for me – constant communication and openness from the beginning clears the air.

Not supportive of women - was there over 2 years and not one woman on my team was promoted, meanwhile 3 men were. Business makes poor decisions - consistently doesn't make bonus (in 2017 employees didn't receive a bonus because the company didn't meet expectations). Not making bonus is a product of the executive leadership team choosing to discount products (promos) to the point where we don't make a profit instead of investing in marketing and getting new customers. The organization consistently does the same thing over and over again instead of testing and learning - they do not take risks. There is no work-life balance, I was consistently overworked with zero support my entire time at NETGEAR. Even after requesting for direct reports to assist with my workload, I was denied the support and resources I needed to do my job effectively.
