Pros

Just about every process is in need of improvement, so there's lots of work for a LONG time. There are 1100+ s/w systems that don't talk. It's a company run by Excel spreadsheets (not a positive).

Cons

Wild West mentality. Try telling a cowboy he needs a different saddle ! It doesn't go over well. Working hard is embraced and working hard is scolded upon. Actually thinking is scolded upon. If you sit at your cube with a pencil in your hand looking at the wall (thinking), you will get funny looks as your not 'producing' anything. I would sum it up as the opposite of apple. There are lots of people set in their ways and management is not committed to making the process more efficient and effective. Heck, the $16B company did not have a supply chain network up until 3 years ago..

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.
