Pros

I work at a smaller site which is held in very high regard.

Cons

As many old and current employees would tell you, this was a truly great place to work at one point and for a long time. Not anymore. I am an eye witness to that culture changing. NetApp is truly a pay for performance company though. You work crazy and put in the time, you are well taken care off for the most part. But 5 layoffs in the past 3+ years has changed a lot of things.

Pros

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.

Cons

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

Pros

Amongst the top companies in the data storage industry = company stability.

Cons

If you'd ask me a year or 2 ago, I would have given the company 5 stars. But, as with most tech companies now, they've started to follow the trend of return to office, regardless of logic. There's little to no room for exceptions and the company would rather sacrifice productivity regardless if they know the hardships for people living in metros (one way commute to the NY or SJC office can take 2 hours one way!) - that and there's no commuter benefits. You have to pay out of pocket and live in fear of not receiving your bonus if you miss the "thrive together" quarterly requirements.
