Pros

Working at NetApp gave me excellent work life balance. There is more emphasis put on delivering quality, rather than rushing things. My manager gave me a lot of trust and room to lock in on delivering shareholder value.

Cons

Quite a lot of red tape that you have to navigate. Measurement of success by upper management is quite rigid, people can have different qualities and still contribute as much to the general outcome.

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
