      Pros

      Exciting, leading-edge high-tech manufacturer. Lots of success over the past 10 years, is now emerging as the Leader in the mass-storage industry. Future appears bright.

      Cons

      Past few years have seen huge acquisitions of other, similar companies. Upper Management seems to be reeling a bit from overactivity. Employees feel that there is no steady hand at the helm. Lots of disparity regarding pay and benefits for employees of the various entities.

      Interesting technology. Good fab with advanced equipments compared to many small fans in Bay Area. Located at north east corner of Silicon Valley, good for commuters from east sf bay

      Politics among people and groups. No cafeteria with food. Dying industry with little chance of advancement. Pay is pretty bad for younger people.
