Pros

Competitive basic salary and bonuses.

Cons

Extremely toxic culture in assembly and test factories. Multiple 'clans' in the company. So called 'team work' is ganging up with your clan to outdo other clans with underhanded tactics; backstabbing, making other team members look bad, passing the buck and taking credits of others' successes. Employees with support from senior management repeatedly bully and create hostile work environment without any consequences. Management in assembly and test do not walk the talk, extremely hierarchical and ignore workplace bullying. Some middle management use insulting words and yell at their employees, firefight, micro-manage, lack problem solving skills and dodge difficult questions in meetings by giggling away. Some key manufacturing KPI are constantly being 'altered' to appear good in reporting. Ever wonder why it's a GREAT PLACE TO WORK company but the turn over rate is high? If given the choice, go for opportunities in frontend fab where team work is prevalent, management is friendly and cares for their employees.

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.
