Pros

Regular hours, little if any overtime, low stress job.

Cons

No career advancement prospects, dead end job fit for people planning to retire soon. Budgets are calibrated per Boise standards, seriously shortchanging employees who work in more competitive markets such as Silicon Valley. They're very entrenched in old world practices and are yet to hear of progressive HR practices such as flex time or even a realistic definition of what "part time" is. Benefits suck and are non-existent if you work less than thirty two hours a week.

Pros

Excellent benefits, including: full insurance, stock purchase plan at 15% discount, ample paid time off. Onsite family healthcare.

Cons

Poor base pay, especially relative to local CoL and equivalent positions overseas (Micron pays 2x base salary of equivalent role vs. Samsung/Hynix in Asia, but 0.5x in America). Dysfunctional workplace driven by internal politics rather than yield/engineering cycles. Technicians are effectively forbidden from promotion or salary increase. Layoffs are frequent and merciless.
