Pros

NetApp culture is very good. It survived a couple of economy slow downs, which is bench mark for the capabilities of top management. Flexible timings Work from home

Cons

No cons at NetApp level, but at Bangalore manageability team: Management of Bangalore manageability team is not doing well. They don't seem to be concerned of whether the engineers are fairly recognized or not. They don't seem to be concerned of the attitude of managers with respect to the fairness towards the engineers. They seem to be believing in the management talent, not the engineering talent. Your fate depends on the manager that you get to report to.

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.
