Pros

Good opportunities for strong problem solvers. Easy to make friends with coworkers. Work is very interesting on an RND team - my dream job.

Cons

Team sizes are decreasing every year. Responsibilities are increasing. Product life cycle goals were just recently crunched in half - accelerating all work. Very few “team leads” are capable of leading a team - most people in the lead positions are voluntold. Heavily skilled and passionate employees are being pushed out the door due to the most recent “bell curve performance ratings”. Morale is very low right now.

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.
