Pros

Excellent benefits and time off, they play a good role of pretending to care about the employees (until it goes up against their bottom line), 12 hour work schedules are the best thing about this job, and the night differential is generous too.

Cons

They are cheap when it comes to maintaining things, they have a "wait until it breaks, then we'll fix it" mentality. You, the employee, don't exist when it compares to competing with Samsung for the #1 spot in the memory business. They don't care about the effects of their actions and how much the employees have done for them when they make decisions that impact their lives. It doesn't matter, it's what the company wants. They are going to soon be a completely 100% overseas company because labor and costs are cheaper over there. It's not a coincidence that top management is starting to get sent over there for 1 year stints, then others go, then others and so on. The writing is on the wall. Fortune 500 company and being a place people want to come and work is very low on their priority list, they just want to catch Samsung. I was aboard the Micron ship, until they were ready to drop you and your entire department in the drop of a hat to send you to a contractor with shitty benefits and no vacation, no sick leave, and no night shift differential. They (management) could have searched jobs within the company and did direct transfers of our department across the board to other positions within. Instead, they once again took the cheap way out and sent everyone of us to this crappy contractor that no one wants to work for with a horrible reputation (Securitas Security Services, read about them on here too). Micron, I hope to hell these selfish decisions come back to bite you in the ass, BIG TIME. I can't wait, I just want to be a fly on the wall when all your good knowledgeable employees leave and all you have left to turn to is a revolving door of crackheads with no common sense and no work ethic and the longest job they've held is about a month or two, try to run your security department. Get ready, your ship is about to sink and good riddance to a bunch of cheap, no good selfish, spineless bastards. Fly your Securitas flag high as your ship goes down!!

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.
