Pros

still trying to figure out

Cons

Micron lacks in giving flexibility to their employees. All the salaried engineers are treated equal to hourly employees which is annoying. They claim that you have to work from 8am to 5pm but meetings usually start at 7:30 am and you have to be there at least 10 minutes early. If you have to go somewhere even for 1 hour, if you are sick then you have to use "vacation time". They want their employees to put in extra time for company but they don't understand if any employee wants to take even 1 hour off, he has to use his vacation time. They strictly access your badge in and badge out timings and they decide how efficient you are depending on "How many hours do you put in" which is ridiculous. They use this information for your promotion review.

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.
