Pros

This is a chinese sweat shop. This is only a pro for the company and profiteers.

Cons

This is a chinese sweat shop. Really if I am working more then 40 hrs a week it just means you do not know your business. This is supposed be a tech company but really it is just a sweat shop only it is here is the u.s. Shame on you!.

Pros

Friendly people and plenty of work - you won't be bored!

Cons

The company has tight profit margins, so expect bare minimum benefits and frequent cuts - this also means limited vertical mobility. At the moment, the company is going through a transformative merge with HGST and SanDisk, so also expect instability.

Pros

Good opportunity to gain understanding of both HDD and SSD industries as the integration with SanDisk is still going on.

Cons

A lot of ineffective and inefficient processes, some analysts feel like they are wasting time doing tedious work.
