Pluspunten
Decent benefits: Health care is completely paid for individuals and low cost for families, bagel and fruit Fridays, nice employee purchase plan for products and decent espp. It really depends on what you group you are in here at NETGEAR. Some groups have nice employees and managers.
Minpunten
In general, upper-management has been here awhile and it's the same old thing over and over. Promotions are not based on merit but instead given to people who are friends with upper management. Bonus % seems very attractive if it pays out (doesn't happen often). Change here is extremely slow. There have been numerous employee surveys and only minor changes have resulted. Additionally this company is spoon fed everything from the CEO. They outsource damn near everything and as a result product quality has suffered. Product firmware is god awful, I wont even purchase our products at a 50% discount.
