Pros

In the past there are, now with the new senior management team, there isn't any

Cons

1) Poor work life balance due to heavy middle management (Managers/Directors/VPs) and reducing engineers and technicians 2) Not much training, everyone too busy working to their stuffs, just learn on the job 3) Management's planning is poor and sometimes unrealistic. 4) Brunch of "YES" men at the middle management. 5) Increasing number of fire-fightings events and the directors just like to finger pointing rather than solving the issues. A lot of time wasting in meetings etc, rather than allowing the engineers work on things.

Pros

Decent pay, great stock grants and stock purchase plan. You can be at the forefront of memory technology driving today's AI megaboom, and benefit from the high demand (i.e. soaring stock price).

Cons

Little sense of community, lifeless office environment, dead-eyed and overworked employees. "Flexible work arrangements" in name only, as recent policy changes have significantly reduced effectiveness especially if you have a long commute or family life. Too much emphasis on unimportant buzz such as embracing diversity and inclusion is just annoying, but par for the course in today's big tech industry.
