Pros

Competitive pay and benefits compared to other companies in the industry. Can have a good career path if you are an engineer.

Cons

Horrible executive team. They give zero respect to employees and scream at you constantly making it miserable to work at. There are way to many levels to get things approved that it slows down business. Extremely top heavy.

Thank you for your review on Glassdoor. We are sorry that you had an unfavorable view of our executive team. Many responders to Glassdoor view management as a strong part of Lam’s culture, which lives by and reinforces our core values, including “mutual trust and respect” and “open communication”. Employee satisfaction is important to us and we appreciate your candid feedback. We encourage employees to give feedback to their team and supervisors to foster a greater sense of teamwork and to apply our established escalation process which supports respectful resolution of disagreements. – Lam Research

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.
