Pros

Well run company; financially stable and successful. Is run as a values-based company, and most of the time it works. Employees have excellent benefits, salary, OK working conditions.

Cons

Do not expect much in the way of praise for what you accomplish. Company culture is driven - people work hard and very long hours - it is expected. Values-based culture seems to slip away when senior management is involved. Decision making is a painfully slow process, often leading to endless iterations. The company claims to have a leader based decision process; in fact it is usually consensus with process.

Pros

Good pay with decent benefits.

Cons

Highly toxic in certain (not all) business units. Directors and above held to far lower standards than employees. I received a lot of abuse from my manager and when I reacted, she used it against me over the course of five years, resulting in my launching an ER investigation upon which resulted in my termination. (They weren't even adult enough to tell me I was being fired; I found out by accident when I received a termination paycheck). Would love to recommend, but would never recommend Lam based on the treatment I got from my entire leadership chain over a five year period. PS, pretty sure retaliation of this nature is against the law; looking into it.
