Pros

It's a pay check and the benefits are good.

Cons

Management runs Fab 6 like it’s a startup. Overtime is the answer to everything. Focus groups accomplish nothing. Questions and requests to Equipment Owners (EO) are generally ignored: equipment parts lists and PM kit parts lists are incomplete; drawings and parts lists are generally unavailable. Maintenance procedures either don’t exist or are incorrect. Once management agreed to restock tool carts of missing and broken tools, it took 8 months. Required tools still aren’t available requiring borrowing from other areas, or making “due” increasing downtime. Training is all OJT and CBT. Management is completely unresponsive to employee concerns and feedback; Management spends its time creating graphs and reports of past events and does nothing to be proactive. Customer’s rate Micron 4/4: worst rating. This is of no surprise to anyone who has worked at successful companies; Most management and EOs at Fab 6 would not “make-it” at companies such as Intel. CVD management and the EOs are not accountable for their mistakes. I am very disappointed to rate them so poorly. I would enjoy giving them the best rating, but I cannot. My conclusion: CVD management and EOs are incompetent and the general management is incompetent for allowing the situation to persist for 10 plus years. I am very concerned entrusting my economic future in Micron specifically Fab 6. Frustration is very high.

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.
