Pros

There is quite a bit of growth potential if you want it. I felt as though I was part of the organization in which I worked and that my opinion was valued. I enjoy working with people who work hard to improve their area.

Cons

Job stability, it is difficult to plan your life when your not sure if the company or your position will be around in a year. The frequency of layoffs speaks to poor planning by the company to diversify.

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.
