Pros

Solid company the financials are good and have good profit margins. They have a good position in their products in the market that they are in. They have good employee benefits, i.e. a rich health care insurance coverage, good vision coverage, great dental, and 401k plan, they have a nice bonus program as well.

Cons

Small company compared to largest competitor. One bad misstep or one loss of major customer would ruin this company. CEO and senior management is crazy scared about security. Some of the senior managment seems isolated from the rest of the company and out of touch with the needs of it's employees.

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.
