Pluspunten

+ The company promotes a friendly atmosphere. Most people are very polite. + Interesting work (at least it was for me)

Minpunten

- Not all teams care about work life balance. Some people end up working 60 hours a week. - Disconnect between managers and engineers. They don't really seem to understand what's going on in the code, leaving it up to the engineer to explain to his/her manager why meeting a deadline is absolutely impossible working 40 hours per week. - Middle management could do with some more training. - Office politics is a big thing. The talker is valued more than the worker. - Egos. Especially in some of the core development teams, there seem to be arguments between senior engineers all the time. Junior engineers really have no say. - Most new hires look like international NCGs who are willing to work excessive overtime shifts, which might explain the shifting expectations of the engineering side. - Average pay for 40 hours. Horrible pay if you're putting in 60, which is not uncommon. - Not very diverse.

Pluspunten

NetApp is a prestigious company, working for this company will be a great resume boost if you cannot break into top fortune 500 companies. Relatively easy to get into NetApp. Competitive pay.

Minpunten

Frequent layoffs. Understaffed which could equate to higher expected output.

Pluspunten

- 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

Minpunten

- 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
