Pros

I've been working at Lam for about 18 months now and am so happy I made the move to work here. Employee well-being, and growth opportunities and career development are all accessible here. I feel heard and seen as an employee. I also know that they're trying their best to continue to support a global, dynamic workforce during an unprecedented time. I'm grateful they keep their Core Values front-of-mind for their customers and also employees.

Cons

None. As someone who was hired during a pandemic, Lam has done a great job in making sure I have everything I need to do my job effectively.

Pros

Opportunities to support global activities

Cons

Heavy micromanagement — frequent revisions on ppt to minor details like font size and colors. Frequently calling staffs even after work hours and lunch time. Manager often takes on additional work from other teams without considering current team workload, So the manager appears supportive and “nice” externally but creates additional burden to the subordinates. Manager controls team budget strictly for team-building activities (events and meals), team members feel restrictive and reluctant to participate, for example team members dare not order appetizers, dessert or drinks on top of entrees during team events. Manager used up most of the travel budget. Biz trip and personal travel boundaries are unclear, especially when manager frequently has business trips overlaps with personal travel. Seems like manager using biz trip to get free hotel and free air tickets for PTO.
