Pros

Not as risky as a startup, so the company will be around for a good few years to come. Benefits are OK, but nothing spectacular.

Cons

Not an exciting place to be. Because of its size, Micron does move slowly. The only sudden changes are the unfortunate layoffs, which seem to come out of the blue when management panics on some news. Badging is required both on the way in and on the way out, making it feel like a soft prison. Management can check the in/out times, and although I haven't heard of anyone having been disciplined because of too few hours worked, people have been reminded to check the hours. People who are not paid by the hour.

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.
