Bad for growth - Engineer SanDisk Employee Review

Pros

The NAND department at least gave some free dinner during tapeout time.

Cons

Other engineering department could not care less if you're working late, there is no incentive and management is very pushy to get jobs done ASAP. Mediocre salary and no clear direction; We've had so many reorgs (2-3) and layoffs in the past few years. Rule of thumb is to expect layoffs as least once a year, followed by a new round of hirings. I guess they want to trim excess fat but do it often and the employees lose its morale.

Pros

Good culture and lots of younger folks working here that makes it fun. Rotation opportunities exist and make it possible to learn in many different teams.

Cons

There used to be excellent managers and directors who were able to mentor the teams and bring about good results. With all the attrition and lack of recognition it is not a fun place to work
