Pros

Pay and benefits are tops in the area.

Cons

They are shifting things overseas and making working in Boise unbearable so we will all just leave instead of having to lay us off. New leadership is so focused on the stock price and not the employees. Spending $10 billion on buying back stock (legal stock price manipulation) while taking away training, travel, and the ability to hire good people. I would rather they lay us all off than to perpetuate this slow bleed - it’s dehumanizing. Although if they laid us all off they’d have to report it and it would hurt the stock price. I never understood what burnout meant...until now.

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.
