Pros

Review is based on SanDisk experience Good RSUs If you negotiate well before joining, you will be in good shape Bonus% is better than many companies Potential to get promoted quickly if you can showcase your skills and have a good manager Flexible hours - no micromanagement Potential to grow professionally and financially

Cons

Politics in middle management You need to know people to get things done Most managers are not qualified enough to guide a team, no vision, no long term goals People are not great technically but gets things done. This can cause unmotivated workplace, work can get boring. Very few smart people around
