Pros

The work schedule is generally flexible, with employees working four days and having three days off each week.

Cons

There is a significant amount of favoritism, with even underperforming managers being promoted to operation manager roles. Retaliation is also a concern—managers who speak up often face backlash from operation managers and may eventually be pressured to resign simply because they are not liked. While this is not the case in every building, favoritism and retaliation are especially prevalent in the Edison SSD facility.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
