Micron Technology reviews

First line managers only have two skills make you work more hours or micro management. From five years of experience I saw multiple divisions with the same problems, people that were good at being and individual contributor were rewarded after “years of experience” with management jobs even though they were really bad at managing people.

For women I would seriously reconsider moving to boise idaho. It is a small town that is stuck in the 1960s in terms of women's rights. Women are accepted as 4 things: stay at home wife, teacher, secretary, nurse. That's it. Much of this ideology is carried into the work place at micron. I had coworkers make remarks such as "I don't understand how people make a household work with two working parents, that could be bad for the kids". I also found that you get a lot of teasing and strange remarks that you don't get in larger, more liberal cities. It's also never a good idea to work for a company that is the "only game in town" but that's up to you.
