Pros

Interesting technology paired with highly intelligent engineers. Under previous iterations of leadership, high touch TA talent was highly valued for that talent that they could source and hire.

Cons

Micromanagement is the word of the day. The TA program is inadequate for the size of the program. There is zero onboarding program, which yields lots of mistakes, oversights, and errors, especially when you choose to replace experienced recruiters with contract recruiters without technical backgrounds. Off the shelf purchases for systems that don't seamlessly pair together makes for an environment of constantly re-reporting the same information over and over again. Senior leadership is on a perpetual hire, dump, rinse and replace cycle, so nothing ever gets accomplished. They talk about culture all the time, but it does not really mean anything. The culture in TA is not something that I would promote, because it's highly toxic and micromanaged. I have had several directors and senior directors in TA during my tenure here, so there is clearly something wrong about the culture in TA, if you have constant turn over. It's a highly toxic, fear driven environment. And you'll hear the term "radical candor" tossed around here like a cool buzz word. Don't believe it. It's just a talking point on a slide that sounds good. Senior leadership from the top down is glaringly absent, and they pat themselves on the back for work that makes zero difference to actually hitting the hiring plan. No one is listening. No one cares.

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.
