Pros

1. Company is putting lots of emphasis on Technological advancement and securing industry leading position in terms of technology for both DRAM and NAND. That helps engineers to work in new technology and find innovative solutions. 2. Good opportunity to grow your career, promotions are generally not too much delayed. 3. Good alignment between remote work and in person work; never force to stay at office all time if jobs are done timely. 4. Good health insurance benefits for both employee and their dependents.

Cons

1. Very reluctant to increase compensation package compared to competitors specially for Boise area where cost of living and housing increased dramatically over last few years. 2. Doesn't put enough resources and manpower for challenging projects resulting in long office hours/late night works for employees. 3. Work life balance is very poor due to less than required manpower and collaboration with sites at different parts of world . And company doesn't seem to care much about the well being of employees. 4. Recently lost lots of talented people to competitors and Company is struggling to hire quality engineers due to low salary offers, current hiring freeze, overall increasing living cost in Boise metro area. This eventually lowers manpower resource degrading work life balance even more and put the company in more challenging position.

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.
