Pros

Irvine location. Integration of HGST and SanDisk would made WD a big player in the storage market

Cons

- Way too many layoffs ins the last 2 years. At least 4 layoffs in the last 2 years when I was there. - Company was in a massive integration efforts (of 3 companies) so the overall employee morale were low. - Not a lot of new technologies development
