Pros

Good working hours. Everyone, including engineers leave by 5pm. Lam Research has a nice cafeteria. Interns do get events and a poster session. Good work gets recognized, even if its done by an intern. Everyone is friendly and willing to teach and help the newer members.

Cons

The pay for interns are pitiful compared to other bay area companies. As an intern your experience is highly dependent on which group you end up in.

Pros

Good pay with decent benefits.

Cons

Highly toxic in certain (not all) business units. Directors and above held to far lower standards than employees. I received a lot of abuse from my manager and when I reacted, she used it against me over the course of five years, resulting in my launching an ER investigation upon which resulted in my termination. (They weren't even adult enough to tell me I was being fired; I found out by accident when I received a termination paycheck). Would love to recommend, but would never recommend Lam based on the treatment I got from my entire leadership chain over a five year period. PS, pretty sure retaliation of this nature is against the law; looking into it.
