Good people, poor management

Pros

Pay, benefits, time-off program are all good for the area. Good people that really want the company to succeed. Corporate seems to want people to be happy, areas do not have the same beliefs and never apply the same practices.

Cons

Good ol' boys network trenched into middle management positions so either suck up to them or go nowhere. A do more with less mentality stacked with a results first, people second approach makes for poor morale which inhibits this company.

Pros

Decent starting salary; time off plan (TOP) is fairly generous; most people seem down to earth and nice; cafeteria has decent food, and there are two Starbucks locations on site; fitness center and clinic (although, a very disorganized and at times unprofessional clinic) on site; medical insurance premiums are reasonable; Boise is a very nice city; it's nice to work at a headquarters that is also located on site at an R&D facility since you can actually see what is going on in operations.

Cons

Antiquated software that is unsupported and close to losing its functionality; very low emphasis on making progressive changes in environmental/sustainability practices; no cost of living raises; only extremely high performers get performance bonuses and I think managers find petty reasons to score people lower to avoid paying bonuses; very unclear promotion path that is subject to the whim of individual supervisors; Micron does not pay for professional associations, PE licenses (from what I've seen anyway), or classes from third party sources that would be beneficial; the interns I've interacted with were family members of current employees (not hired from a competitive pool of applicants); very hesitant to hire managers from outside the organization that would benefit Micron by bringing in new views; "cube world" with bullpens and a lot of noise; no repercussions for yelling at or demeaning other employees; frequent behavior by men that could easily be described as sexual harassment (yet female managers receiving this treatment seem to do nothing about it); criticism if you dare ask a lot of questions or question the way things have always been done; way too many meetings; too many people graduated from BSU, University of Idaho, or other Idaho colleges, and they badly need people who have attended other colleges; many team members don't seem very bright; no company car available to conduct business off site, so you pretty much have to use your own car or refuse to perform the task; you generally cannot work from home unless you're willing to explain exactly what you plan to do at home; many people have to keep complete time sheets of all tasks, even if they are salaried; you are expected to take an hour lunch even if you don't want to; and worst of all, site access is by key card, and you can be sure (despite what some might say) that someone is tracking when you leave and arrive and how much time you spend on site (which is not fair for salaried employees).

Pros

None that I can even think of

Cons

-If you get hired for a role in their mobile business unit, run as far away as you can -A total boys club that plays favoritism all the time -If you have any problems, don’t expect HR to help you, they only care to benefit the company and not you -Extreme micromanagement and cut-throat environment. -You’ll never see work-life balance here, expect to be critiqued every step of the way and no appreciation or empathy -Company culture is non existent, no fun things to do and none of the coworkers will even bother talking to you except for work needs
