Business outlook
Pros
As a senior engineer with a family, I appreciated the work life balance.
Cons
Poor salary and sometimes cryptic bonus plans. Limited benefits compared to others in industry. Lack of stock compensation or even ESPP (when I left in 2006). Micron was a place to "punch in and out the clock" and get on with your personal life. Some might consider it a bit on the sleepy side compared to other companies. Also it seemed that everyone was a "lifer" Micron employee--many never worked anywhere else in the chip industry. This showed up in a lack of understanding of how things work elsewhere.
