Pros

One of the better paying employers in semiconductor industry.

Cons

Internal auditors may ‘catch’ you on a daily basis and ‘punishment’ like getting a poor year assessment with no salary increments are common. Bell curved assessment with lower spectrum is laid off.

Pros

Excellent benefits, including: full insurance, stock purchase plan at 15% discount, ample paid time off. Onsite family healthcare.

Cons

Poor base pay, especially relative to local CoL and equivalent positions overseas (Micron pays 2x base salary of equivalent role vs. Samsung/Hynix in Asia, but 0.5x in America). Dysfunctional workplace driven by internal politics rather than yield/engineering cycles. Technicians are effectively forbidden from promotion or salary increase. Layoffs are frequent and merciless.
