Pros

Good compensation. Nothing else.

Cons

Lots of idiots at top. Excels and colorful ppts is all you need to survive here. Everybody works for survival here, technology is only talked about, but everybody's real job is politics of survival. They have all the bad people from few good old companies. (LSI, NetApp) Recent round of firing(5% across board) . Best part is nobody got fired from top. All engineering folks got fired.

SanDisk Response

Thank you for providing us with your feedback! Unfortunately, our inability to meet our expectations in Q1 this past year led us to making a 5% head count reduction across the company, not just engineering. While this was a very difficult time for us a company, we are confident in our ability to recuperate from this stint and return to performing successfully.

Pros

Good culture and lots of younger folks working here that makes it fun. Rotation opportunities exist and make it possible to learn in many different teams.

Cons

There used to be excellent managers and directors who were able to mentor the teams and bring about good results. With all the attrition and lack of recognition it is not a fun place to work
