Pros

Lam has a great benefits package and offers employee stock options. Very laid back work environment, big change coming from the military.

Cons

The biggest challenge of working at Lam is the schedule. We work on a condensed work week, 12 hour shifts 3 on 4 off.

Pros

Coworkers are great. It is a thriving industry for the time being.

Cons

Weak management; never had a one on one interface with my manager in six months. I was working as a temp. through Superior and was trained and working as a backup lead, but was told it could be two years before being hired on full time. Ultimately, if you're not hired direct through a veterans preference programs you're going to have a rough time getting an actual position. They are also are very disorganized for a tech. company, with little to no "rollout" for new programs. Specifically, if they have a new safety policy, they don't take the proper steps to implement; they would rather reprimand than train. I was also promised a training bonus, and I trained two individuals, but I never received said bonus. I would avoid unless you have a guaranteed way of getting hired on (Veteran, Nepotism, etc.).
