The number of meetings at NetApp and the disconnect between employees are mind-boggling - There are two sets of people - 1) People who are very comfortable with their job and hardly willing to share their knowledge for the betterment of the team. 2) People who see NetApp as a staging company for their next big gig.

Someone wrote this in the second or third thread below. I haven’t been in this company long, but I’ve been here long enough to notice that some people are so stingy with sharing knowledge that it’s baffling to me. Why is that? Maybe they fear that new, younger people will take their jobs?

This post isn’t helpful at all. What BU are you in? What high level division? Engineering? Marketing? Sales? That’s a bold comment without more info with a company of over 11,000 people.
There are a few possible reasons, but it is all about job security.
- They don't want others to take their jobs. but really? it's not rocket science.
- They have nothing to share, they have just been milking pay checks. There are a lot of such people in big company, they pretend to be busy , but mostly non-sense.
