Ventajas
NetApp provides you with the some of the best benefits, including paid-time off to volunteer, party "beer-bash" every Friday at various NetApp sites, and many more. NetApp is still a relatively small company where you have a chance of contributing and getting proper recognition for the contribution. The culture is very open: the management communicates directly with employees and work with them to help the company grow. The promotions I have noticed usually happen from within and I think that people here have a vast set of career opportunities to choose from. One of the best things about working at NetApp is that the people you work with truly believe in their work and everyone actually wants to be here.
Desventajas
The NetApp compensation is at industry average, rather than being higher. I work at one the the remote site's of the company and it seems that the environment can be somewhat different at the remote sites than the headquarter in SVL.
