Pros
-- Boise is an AWESOME place to live. -- Lots of smart, hard-working people -- Many opportunities for professional growth (depending on what department you're in) -- Excellent time-off benefits -- Micron has repeatedly demonstrated that it can weather the storms inherent to the semi-con industry.
Kontras
-- Lack of cooperation among different sites creates challenges for all departments -- Highly contentious environment; strong us-vs.-them mentality (and behavior) among different departments -- There is often a greater emphasis on hours worked than on work accomplished. -- Physical environment is bleak. If you have a problem with the color gray and with windowless rooms, you'll have a problem working here. -- Good Ol' Boys Club -- New initiatives are not given a chance to work and to become a part of the culture before they are replaced by newer initiatives. Management always seems to be looking for the next bright, shiny object.
