Pros

Initial hike is good. All other bvenefits which they provide to an employee are common across other semicon companies, so nothing special their.

Cons

There is no work life balance in the company. Employees are forced to work for 11-12hrs a day and also asked to work on weekends by the management. Appraisals are mostly in single digits, doesn't matter how hard you work. There are no proper tools for development and debug purpose. Employees are forced to come to office during this dangerous covid time, when the situation in India is worsening. Very poorely managed team.

Pros

The hours are excellent, as there are few other jobs that offer 3 on/4 off, 4 on/3 off where I can have such an excellent work/life balance. Almost everyone I have encountered has been very easy to learn from and work with. Micron offers many benefits that support having a family, including direct financial, TOP, insurance, and savings benefits. Get to work with humanity's most cutting-edge technology providing one of the most important products in human history. Fulfilling work.

Cons

The pay is acceptable, but you will be seriously pressed to find a place to live near the main site in Boise. Housing availability for families is severely limited while apartments, while more numerous, have become significantly more expensive to rent. Between that and the rise of the cost of living in the area, the base pay here is difficult to cover everything if you didn't show up with some monetary reserves. People are trying their best, but training very much needs attention getting better organized and structured. Especially working in an R&D environment with so many different dangerous materials and equipment. Even more seriously, there is some doubt that you can get proper support if you are actually injured in this environment. You may find yourself getting told whatever injury you suffered at work is a "pre-existing condition". This is not a hypothetical.
