Pros

They usually pay above average, relative to others in the industry. There is not too many turnover and the job is stable. It's a good place to work if one decides to settle down. The co-workers are great and friendly.

Cons

The company is big, so there will be some politics involved which may not seem fair to everyone involved. For example, they will promote team members or managers whom the senior management knows well, not based on their domain familiarity or management expertise.

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.
