Pros

Very customer-focused. Top leadership is extremely strong, perhaps the best in the industry. Opportunities for rapid promotion in title. Highly technical and data driven environment. Very little politics. Nice profit-sharing program.

Cons

Lam does not have enough employees, so the workload per employee is very high. Long work hours--including frequent weekends--are the norm. For some employees, frequent and unpredictable travel.

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.
