SYDNEY, Australia-23 June
2011-NetApp today announced it has been ranked #3 on BRW's
2011 "50 Best Places to Work" list, based on research conducted by
the Great Place to Work™ Institute Australia, having earned
the #1 spot in 2010.
This success is the result of NetApp's
positive work environment, which encourages trust, integrity,
equality, autonomy, open communication, collaboration and
opportunities for every employee. The company adopts a
down-to-earth approach to accomplishing business objectives and
believes in the strength of a shared vision where employee input is
encouraged and valued.
Peter O'Connor, Vice President for NetApp
Australia and New Zealand, said, "We are extremely happy to be
named the #3 Best Place to Work in Australia. NetApp is committed
to building a model company with a culture that values creativity,
teamwork, productivity, leadership, and innovation. Our team of
people is the key to what makes NetApp such a great place to work.
Their passion and dedication is fundamental to NetApp's success,
both in Australia and around the world.
"I would like to congratulate all of the
companies which made BRW's list this year. We are very proud of
being a great place to work and I thank the NetApp Australia team
for its continued dedication to going beyond and providing an
outstanding experience for our customers."

survey developed by the Great Place to Work™ Institute.
