Pros

Great paid time off system, benefits are strong, and it is hard to beat the starting salaries in Boise, ID. Enjoy working on complex problems and see recommendations get a serious consideration.

Cons

Promotion path is not consistent between organizations within the company. In one area you can be told by management that you will not get a promotion to a certain level because of your degree. However, move to another department and the game totally changes and you can get promoted. This is two different areas in the same company! The yearly survey is also a joke. When you see a specific area review their experiences as poor year after year and having the lowest satisfaction scores compared to all other areas, management needs to take a step back and try to change that path. However, management seems to not take the data to heart and attribute the low scores the a few "grumpy"members.

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.
