Pros

Good people to work with. There is some room to define and own your role.

Cons

Despite the high 'best places to work' score, this is not a good place to build a career. Attrition and turn over rates are very high. This company hires very experienced people and does a poor job of helping them grow in their careers. There is very little mobility either upwards or to different jobs within the organization. The latter is especially problematic and makes employees unhappy. In addition, this company is struggling. Lack of career development and career path is the top reason why so many people are leaving.

Pros

- 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

Cons

- 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
