Pros

the pay is good with good benefits. The management has lots of different programs to help you with any need.

Cons

There is very little room to climb the corporate ladder. It can take a very long time to get promoted because they want to see you have successful projects but give you very little time to do so. Also, a lot of the projects given to you are dead ends and the management is negligent when it comes to assisting you with your goals. The promotion requirements are steep and it takes a long time to accomplish even if you are good at staying on top of the progress. The company laid off most of their workforce after making record profits and cited anticipated market downturn as the reason for the layoffs. Most of the people let go were employees who'd been with the company for decades and had good standing history and experience.

Pros

Decent pay, great stock grants and stock purchase plan. You can be at the forefront of memory technology driving today's AI megaboom, and benefit from the high demand (i.e. soaring stock price).

Cons

Little sense of community, lifeless office environment, dead-eyed and overworked employees. "Flexible work arrangements" in name only, as recent policy changes have significantly reduced effectiveness especially if you have a long commute or family life. Too much emphasis on unimportant buzz such as embracing diversity and inclusion is just annoying, but par for the course in today's big tech industry.
