Needs implementation for the Birthday
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Letting go and focus on less things
They need a sound strategy.
Leadership needs to treat employees like people instead of assets --- appreciate the fact that really great people work here and are passionate about what building/delivering amazing products and services.
Stop the politics and start thinking big
Accepting mediocrity as a way to operate
What is the best part about your compensation package?
A week of volunteer time
All in together, combination of salary and benefits
Base pay on par with industry
I love the bonus structure and ESPP, ive made a ton of money on our ESPP its a really good program.
Bonus, but it's discretionary and political.
Review from Customer Support Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Health insurance eat up 15% of my paycheck and I have no stock options
Review from Sales Dept
Toxic culture for starters. It would help if managers actually wrote words, you know like composed of letters, on a focal review...
Review from Engineering Dept
Managers' load & pressure are much higher than the same pay grade of engineers, but the RSU's awarded are lower in general.
Review from Engineering Dept
What are some of the best things about your team?
Some are collaborative and nice
Strong performing and collaborative team
collaborative, hard working, loyal, committed, want to do the right thing for the company and their team
there is no 2 way communication. Expectation is do what you are told.
Review from Sales Dept
Elite talent and intellect, collaborative.
Review from Customer Support Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Communication I have no idea what's going on half the time as no one communicates it's fine for everyone who doesn't care
Review from Sales Dept
Think big and be open to new ideas
Stop trying to act as if NetApp has nothing new to learn
My team was a smart group of individuals. I really enjoyed working with them and I hope they find their way to a place they are valued.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
people engagement in meetings, calls, onsite. there is always a motivation to connect.
The freedom, trust, and flexibility. It makes me want to work harder for the company because I get to love and live my life the way I want to.
Once was a greatest place to work. Market disruption tightened belt and transformation through layoffs and benefit reductions were painful growth/decay.
Review from Customer Support Dept
Everyone is like family, always try to give back to community.
Review from Engineering Dept
Technology driven company with good culture
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Improve the culture. Leadership needs to be more approachable and empathetic. We're not looking to be baby-sat - just want to be treated with human decency.
Communication is awful no one talks about what they need
Review from Sales Dept
Have clear mission, goals and operational plans
Make people more accountable to drive the business forward
clear strategy that doesnt change every minute
What did you like most about the interview process?
It was clear and motivating
Straight forward and comminication about progress
everyone was very personable, asked questions with genuine interest and were willing to share their own
Quick decisions were made overall
1 on 1 interviews - no gangs allowed :)
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Hold the promises you make and actually train your employees. It's not like you don't try you just don't train the people who are supposed to train so the bar is low
Review from Sales Dept
Reduce the timeline for the interviews
What makes you most happy at work?
Being with smart and kind people
helping my team to develop, learn and win in their own roles... so we can all ultimately help the business win
We hire amazing human beings who do amazing things to enhance our businesd and culture
Good Respect with Co-workers & friendly culture
Regular customer facing interaction. Solving technical issues and sharing experiences with peers
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
They need a new CEO
Lack of innovation to keep pace with the industry
Not much innovation. Sales has too much power to just compete on price
I want it my job to be more engaging and proactive, but it has restrictions currently
Executive team and upper management is focused solely on the current quarter results, asking lower management to cut back in almost all spending to artificially inflate results. If they would invest in longer term employer development, morale would be higher and employees generally happier.
