Pros

The office is nice, modern, and a comfortable place to work.

Cons

**Title: Unprofessional Management and Poor Treatment of Sales Staff** ⭐☆☆☆☆ My experience with NetApp in Cork was extremely negative, mainly due to poor management and how the sales team is treated. I was made redundant in October, even though management reportedly knew as early as May — yet nothing was communicated. Being kept in the dark for months created unnecessary stress, uncertainty, and a strong sense of disrespect. The final six months at the company were particularly awful. Morale was low, pressure was high, and support from leadership was virtually non-existent. Targets often felt unrealistic, communication was unclear or misleading, and feedback from sales staff was ignored. Instead of supporting and developing the team, management relied on pressure, blame, and silence. The environment felt toxic, demotivating, and emotionally draining, especially knowing decisions about job security were being withheld. Overall, this was a very disappointing experience, and I would strongly caution anyone considering joining the sales organization unless there are major changes in leadership culture and transparency.

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
