NetApp reviews about "upper management"

The upper management are very poor

Work Life Balance, upper management

Too many management layers Too much dirty politics at the company Remote sites are taking advantage of upper management Need to concentrate on technical solutions If you are not a manager, your voice is not heard and not trusted!

Your work life balance depends on your team and your upper level management

Outdated tools, products behind the market. Upper management seems to chase trends and then abandon projects a lot.

miscommunications on priorities from different teams between middle and upper management

Upper management internal issues causing constant churn in executives

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.

NetApp stopped promoting from within, especially upper management positions. This has been killing the culture for years now. New people, like at a VP level, will come in and fire 20+ year employees that are driving critical work and then turn around and promote managers to directors to get their allegiance. Not a company that you're likely to work at for more than 10 years because when layoffs happen they target the senior people.
