Avantages

Plenty of parking. Amazing work/life balance (Because no one is really doing real works)

Inconvénients

It's a mystery how this place frequently shows up on fortune's best place to work list. Average pay, average benefit and no perks compares to any silicon valley companies near by. Beer bash is pretty much unheard of in HQ to cut cost, while many remote office privately hosting "weekly" beer bash with company's budget while working on shorter than average hours. Engineer's productivity is almost non-existence since the introduction of VED (Essentially your desktop work space is under virtual environment but no network access). There's a culture of engineers saying yes to a task with zero intention to ever getting it done. The capable people get things done without ever getting the raise or promotion they were promised to receive, while slackers sit in their task for another day and getting free money. Half of the executives, founders and motivated engineers have left the company these past months. What's left are the finger pointing types of people who loves to play politics. Cafeteria food is average, but the menu never change, so you'd grow tire of them in a month, and people love to book meeting near lunch time so you can't eat anywhere else. HQ is conveniently located next to Quarry to poison your lung.

Avantages

- 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

Inconvénients

- 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
