Pros

When you're done working there, you can compare it to the rest of the professional world, and be glad you left.

Cons

Management is inept and full of backstabbers and liars. Don't expect any guidance on elevating your career at Micron. You'll be too busy trying to hit unreasonable schedules created by other people who don't have to do the work. Yearly "performance reviews" are a joke. You're given a silly 1-5 rating by a manager who doesn't know what you do, and who checks in once a year. No work/life balance due to all of the above. Routine is 60 hrs/wk. Unreasonable vacation policy that is not competitive. SanDisk takeover has made the working environment toxic. Micron is off shoring jobs as fast as possible. As a result, the best people have already left for other opportunities. Management by fear and intimidation. There are video cameras watching your every move. Managers monitor your key-card entry comings and goings. Managers actively monitor how long you're at your terminal, and how long (in seconds) it's been since your mouse has moved.

Pros

Strong organizational growth – The company is continuously expanding, which creates exciting opportunities for career development and new challenges. Attractive RSU compensation – With the recent significant rise in stock price, the RSU (Restricted Stock Unit) package has become a highly rewarding part of the overall compensation.

Cons

Organizational silos – Each team or department tends to operate in its own silo, which can limit cross-functional collaboration and visibility into what other groups are working on. Overly strict internal security policies – While data security is important, the current policies can be excessively restrictive, making it difficult to share documents and resources even among colleagues working toward the same goals. This can slow down productivity and hinder efficient collaboration.
