Pros

Nice place to live, good health insurance.

Cons

Incompetence - Managers with no formal training in process improvement (Six-sigma, etc), PMP process and topics, productivity software (for transparency/traceability), and software standards/Architecture (globals variables are perfect). Theft - theft of your ideas from multiple levels of management then they argue the ideas are theirs. Cut Throat - no transparency, so managers can control the upward perception, future direction not shared, excluded from meeting. Since its hard to get qualified people to move to Boise, positions are filled with friends who lack the skills. Manage by fear is what they do. Become a "YES MAN" to survive, not a place to use your skills or expand them.

Pros

Decent pay, great stock grants and stock purchase plan. You can be at the forefront of memory technology driving today's AI megaboom, and benefit from the high demand (i.e. soaring stock price).

Cons

Little sense of community, lifeless office environment, dead-eyed and overworked employees. "Flexible work arrangements" in name only, as recent policy changes have significantly reduced effectiveness especially if you have a long commute or family life. Too much emphasis on unimportant buzz such as embracing diversity and inclusion is just annoying, but par for the course in today's big tech industry.
