Pros

Flexible work schedule, Competitive Salaries, Remote Work Options, Overall Company Culture, It takes a while but they do listen to employees (we got a 2.5% mid-year wage increase because of continual employee upset about wages not keeping up with the intense inflation)

Cons

I know this is a practice in companies, but in my opinion worth mentioning. I believe some recruiters give false promises to get new grads to work for them. There are obviously many benefits to employment with micron but they over sell it to the point where its misleading. The sentiment that is thrown around is that by these recruiters it harder for the new grads to leave and get a new job than not take the job in the first place. I am thankful for this position, but want to warn other new hires that recruiters will go past the point of ‘putting it the best light’ so keep that in mind. Micron is great, certain departments are not, spend the majority of time looking into that.

Pros

The hours are excellent, as there are few other jobs that offer 3 on/4 off, 4 on/3 off where I can have such an excellent work/life balance. Almost everyone I have encountered has been very easy to learn from and work with. Micron offers many benefits that support having a family, including direct financial, TOP, insurance, and savings benefits. Get to work with humanity's most cutting-edge technology providing one of the most important products in human history. Fulfilling work.

Cons

The pay is acceptable, but you will be seriously pressed to find a place to live near the main site in Boise. Housing availability for families is severely limited while apartments, while more numerous, have become significantly more expensive to rent. Between that and the rise of the cost of living in the area, the base pay here is difficult to cover everything if you didn't show up with some monetary reserves. People are trying their best, but training very much needs attention getting better organized and structured. Especially working in an R&D environment with so many different dangerous materials and equipment. Even more seriously, there is some doubt that you can get proper support if you are actually injured in this environment. You may find yourself getting told whatever injury you suffered at work is a "pre-existing condition". This is not a hypothetical.
