Pros

Solid training and skill building, this industry curretly are still growing but not sure will last for how long. Work close with customer and know things in bigger scope.

Cons

Bureaucracy. Boss is boss, what you could do is following the instruction of your boss any time you think you have different thoughts, just let go.

Pros

Overall a good company. Compensation is decent. Work schedule is rather flexible for an engineer. Not too stressful if one isn't overly ambitious.

Cons

As a high tech company in the heart of the Silicon Valley, Lam Research can't stand up to other great companies in the area, such as Google, Facebook, to name a few. Granted they are in different industries. But the corporate culture should be comparable. Office politics, even in the engineers' circle, could sometimes become frustrating.
