Pros

Great benefits package, great people. Profit sharing.

Cons

No feeling of job security, the current performance model demands 8% layoffs each and every year. Even if every employee excels someone will still need to go. Micron promotes employee contentment on one hand and slaps them around with the other. Not many employees are happy with this new model, supervisors are telling employees they are doing great at midyear reviews and then being forced to lower the review rating and offer the employee a severance package at years end. I have been told this comes directly from Sanjay and no one has the balls to tell him this is wrong. He believes that there is always room for improvement, which is true, but this is a drastic way of achieving that goal. He is attempting to instill performance through fear.

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.
