Wrong people being cut

Among those who are affected, there are probably those who did not work very hard and do not have a good skillset, but my perception is that many wrong people were cut as well. Why is this happening? For some people I know, it makes no sense at all... — read more

NetApp now the worst place to work

Where is the troll hunter ?

The fanboy seems to have been silenced ..... Disparaging all the comments about layoffs as false. In fact it seems that the troll hunter may actually be a NetApp employee whose job it is to sanitize negative comments.

Leadership is the problem at NetApp

I think the problem with Netapp now is NOT the people who are WORKING. It is the Leadership team who is eating all the free money with nothing to offer and decides to lay off ICs for the situation they landed all in. For the decisions, they made that... — read more
