Netapp?

Anyone work there? I have an interview and I’m curious what it’s like — what’s the good and the bad?

It will be like visiting an antique store

Its good if youre in one of the cloud BU’s

Sorry to say, grass is always greener on other side

NetApp kdkt Jul 3, 2019

Look at recent revenues. It’s downhill from here. Also netapp pay sucks. But employees have great WLB..

Our TC is a joke. What org are you interviewing in? If it's the manageability group, run.

NetApp OT_❤️ Jul 4, 2019

Only join if you are in cloud BU!! Otherwise run lola run!!

NetApp hid3y Jul 21, 2021

Even cloud BU is a mess now. Antique tools and people

What’s wrong with the cloud BU?

You might end up getting paid more than employees been in the company for 5 plus years! That’s NetApp HR.

I love that comment 😊

NetApp wPBW03 Aug 31, 2019

But what is the problem in getting paid more if someone deserve

NetApp tVwX14 Jul 4, 2019

What group and role are you looking at? I'll agree with the great WLB comment. Management has gotten progressively worse, at least in the sales org. Openly hostile to the account teams. Last quarter they decided to enforce a windfall profits clause for the globals sales teams that significantly exceeded goal. Cut 'em off at the knees. And they did it the day before payroll ran, but after commission statements had already been sent out. So we were expecting fat checks and then saw exactly......nothing. Existing customers are relatively happy with the company, but new customer acquisition absolutely blows. Prospects are openly hostile, for reasons I haven't completely figured out.

holy cow. That's terrible. This is why I hate working for others. Go eat what you kill instead (start a business)

NetApp HFop70 Jul 4, 2019

Everything is great, great CEO, great food, great team members, culture is nice, wlb is awesome, joined and never wanna leave.

Cisco xandercage Jul 4, 2019

Are you in your late 30s?

NetApp HFop70 Jul 4, 2019

Late 20s, our team uses go and k8s, one of our team member uses rust as well.

Great points. Anyone have any thoughts about ONTAP AI business? Any Pros and cons to share?

NetApp 300k Jul 18, 2019

I think ONTAP AI is marketing gimmick

Microsoft iLFp65 Jul 18, 2019

Thanks. Would you say there is a strong future for them within Netapp? Given Netapps history with layoffs I just want to understand how stable the ONTAP AI org is.

NetApp 7%^#@* Jul 18, 2019

Netapp AI is strong, we are the sponsor of opml this year.

Cisco xandercage Jul 18, 2019

Lol! From when you are concluding that sponsoring an AI event means you have strong AI division? That’s the typical marketing gimmick !
