Pros

Pay is strong for the area and the benefits are good (when they are not requiring you to use the benefits on the company’s timeline for example paid time off is being cut so we are required to take what we have during a specific time the company has given us. If not we lose it)

Cons

There has been a push in the last 2 years around making Micron the best company to work for. Unfortunately, this is truly about the numbers and not the people. Staked ranking systems, being pushed to work like Silicon Valley but not giving Silicon Valley pay, and leadership driving team members to breaking points by pushing more and more initiatives on extremely short timelines. The diverse workforce has a ways to go with women in top leadership roles still lacking. The CEO talks of having women in those roles yet he has not hired a single woman VP to report to him. The only woman that does, was here before he arrived. The culture has gotten so bad that many of the smartest and most loyal team members are leaving in alarmingly large numbers. The reviews are getting so bad that we are being asked by leadership to go onto social media and say good things to try to bring up our numbers.

Sandisk takeover

Pros

Get to work on some new technologies and there is always room to innovate.

Cons

All upper management is being replaced by ex Sandisk employees ever since new CEO started, Sandisk friends and hiring their Sandisk friends. People who should be working in Boise are given positions in Milpitas because they don't want to leave California. It is very cut throat with the new bell curve rating system. If work life balance is important to you then you won't find that here. Non engineers (upper management) are making engineering decisions.

Pros

Decent benefits and good people

Cons

Company is using forced normal distribution for performance management. This turns in to a popularity contest. They will offer you severance package if you get scored low. In my experience, my manager's manager dictated the scores and I was the odd one out.
