      Pros

      I'm thinking, I'm thinking ... - Gym is nice - Adequate parking

      Cons

      - Noone accountable when a product is not successful - Middle mgmt layer is thick. Directors upon Directors. Directors without anyone reporting to them. When there are layoffs (which is pretty often) mostly the rank anf file employees are let go. - Hurry up and wait approach to projects - No raises in two years - Morale is low, noone trusts the execs

      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
