Pros

Rewarded for working hard, work with diverse teams, great leadership, good benefits, good work/life balance, expanding company with a position on future market share for its industry

Cons

Cafe is not sufficient to handle the number of employees on the campus. On some days it can take as long as 40 minutes to get something from the grill. The cafe should double its stations to accommodate the number of growing employees

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.
