Pros

Paycheck and benefits are reasonable. There are some nice people working there as you would expect. Very few have a favorable opinion of Micron.

Cons

Micron closed a deal to buy Elpida in Japan and Rex chip in Taiwan the week before layoffs in Manassas occurred. Micron at least in Manassas, VA is very troubled, Layoffs occurred August 14, 2013. 78 people were let go. Six guards patrolling the parking lots on foot carried shot guns. The guards in the building carried batons and hand-cuffs. The message was very clear. More jobs are leaving the U.S. Stay clear of Micron in Manassas.

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.
