Pros

-benefits are great --in general, the culture is one of the best I've worked with. Co-workers and other employees that I've met from this company are nice and professional people --pretty flexible in asking for time off (not much PTO though)

Cons

As some have echoed on here, it depends who you have as a manager. Personally, my manager was pretty tyrannical. Yelled constantly (weekly basis) and stated that it's "company culture" to do so. Was micromanaged almost daily

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.
