Camouflaged layoffs
I am sure there are layoffs going but they are small so it doesn't meet the bar where there has to be a email from the top. Also I am sure who ever posted the layoffs for the 5th and now the 13th will post a new one for the 20th. So take these with a... — read more
July 13 Layoffs

When is ICP payout for 2017?
My manager and I discussed merit increase but there is complete silence on ICP. Has it been paid out? When will it be paid ?
Company is doing great!
While its not AMD or Nvidia (or maybe even Oracle), the company is on a positive track. Haters might as well start digging their own grave since they can't move on with reality. The latest rounds of cuts did great things for the company and while... — read more
With the cost side of the equation doing better then goal it all comes down to revenue.
If revenue meets goals, no layoffs, if there is a miss. Because revenue is lagging a little I guarantee execs will be getting wacked. I guarantee people like Roger Anderson and some of the other legacy VPs will be gone by the end of the summer, if... — read more
Layoffs 2017
What do you guys think - when will be the next big round of layoffs? I know, it's all rumors now, just polling what folks think.
King of the castle of sand
Coming here to discuss layoff rumors makes sense. Coming here to bloviate on a company being a leader in storage in a world of cloud or full vendor solutions is pointless. Storage is a commodity technology now. It will not solve a companies business... — read more
Pure Storage...
Pure Storage works to dumb down storage and make it like Apple. It's basic and lacks a lot of features. Part of performance is due to it not having those features but as it grows over time it will then become bogged down with the rest of them... — read more
Note
If you didn't walk away from SKO convinced in NetApp you should just quit now. Best portfolio in the market, and excellent Leadership. The rest of the market is a joke right now, so if you aren't convinced you can make a killing selling NetApp, you... — read more
SolidFire has been impacted significantly
Both frontline sales and managers have been given 60 days to find a new position within the company or receive severance pay equal to 1-month salary for every year of employment. I smell another failed acquisition by NetApp. The sad thing is that... — read more
Layoff today in SPA-Team
several people affected in Dave Masons Group
The writing was on the wall 5 years ago
That's why I got out back then. As they approached critical mass with Indian "know-it-alls" drinking their own cool-aid, there was only 1 way for it to go. Technical model was unsustainable, impact of flash was ignored. Top guys were draining the... — read more

There is quite a bit of talk now about a May 17 date. Is anyone else hearing the same date?
NetApp Buying Pure Storage
I don't know why, it's a total crap company and product. Heard from multiple sources since the NIMBLE sale, Pure is going for pennies on the dollar and NTAP is putting them out of their misery.
Big Political Play happening with managers..
In a last ditch effort, my former manager and his boss (director) have taken "transformation" positions. Meanwhile my team now has a real, hands-on, well-respected manager. My former manager was a real slime-bucket..took credit for all the good... — read more
