Pros

I Love working at Micron, that is why I keep coming back. :-) I would like to say that I noticed the improvements in Micron's culture and inclusion from the way it was in 2019 when I last worked here.

Cons

I am a returning employee (rehire) and I have not had the support in reinstating or uploading all my old transcripts from Micron classes and college classes. I remember taking some of the classes that are required for my current job, and it would be nice not having to do them again. I was recently diagnosed with Brest Cancer, and I have not completed required hours to qualify for FMLA. I know there are rules and sometimes they can't be changed, but life happens and there should be some exceptions. Now, I may be faced with the decision of keeping my job or getting the medical treatment I need because of my schedule. I know I will get all my seniority back after the one year make, but I need it now. My original hire date was 12/1997. I don't want to leave Micron again. :-(

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.
