Pros

If you need a paycheck and get a job here - you will get paid.

Cons

Sr. Management lacks strong leadership & vision - just chases not going bankrupt. Accepts mediocracy. The 'senior' managers decide how things get done then dictate to the rest of the company what will be done and how it will be achieved. There is little ability to influence or change directions - even when it makes sense to do so. Project managers are measured on meeting timelines, not results. Because the majority of the Executives and Senior managers have been there for years, and have no intent on leaving - this will not change.

Pros

Excellent benefits, including: full insurance, stock purchase plan at 15% discount, ample paid time off. Onsite family healthcare.

Cons

Poor base pay, especially relative to local CoL and equivalent positions overseas (Micron pays 2x base salary of equivalent role vs. Samsung/Hynix in Asia, but 0.5x in America). Dysfunctional workplace driven by internal politics rather than yield/engineering cycles. Technicians are effectively forbidden from promotion or salary increase. Layoffs are frequent and merciless.
