Pros

-Last year around 20 people from Tech left Lam India.Great job young stars. Good work environment,govt job in India. Easy life,people join as fresher and stay till retirement.Every 6 months you receive an increment,provided you keep your lead and manager happy.travel to US for dev team only .9-5 job. overalll if you dont have dreams to learn technology,and you are silly,then its the best choice.

Cons

-PF transfer claim ,doesnt get approved every time you request through online portal(people are bit old fashioned,so only paper work){pathetic}it may take you a year to get your pf transferred .Not only with me,but a few more people are their in line. -Bad food,very bad,not sure how people are eating it up,and max seem comfortable with that .Even managers have their food outside office everyday. -no non veg allowed in cafeteria ,as MD is a veg guy, -Annual day does happen,but a boring one,no drinks,go and have pathetic food.FYI:drinks available for delegates separately -No cabs facility -,a lot of processes for a simple solution. -few who keeps on talking,and by 6 will leave the office,but dont prefer in finding a quick solution to a problem and solve it out. -A day before delegates visit to India,there would be announcement on dress properly,cleaning stuff will happen ,and suddenly for 2 days cafeteria food also improve,all sort of non-sense happens. -Your hard work will always be taken by your lead. -US should take control of the things happening at Lam India,or best is change the MD,people had enough of him.

Pros

BASE PAY: Great overall, 55% of average base pay. Raises keep you right there over time. BENEFITS: Health and Life Insurance program is quite nice WORK-LIFE BALANCE: Just enough vacation to keep you sane. LEADERSHIP: CEX level leadership are quite smart and know where the company needs to go.

Cons

BONUSES & STOCK: Everyone gets profit sharing, but only managers and the top 1% (as determined by managers...so join the good-ol-boys club if you can) get anything other than that. MID-LEVEL MANAGEMENT: A bunch of long-time "good-ol-boys" who sign up for unrealistic deadlines and commitments to make their resumes look good, and then pass those on to you. By the time you fail, they have already moved into the next position in management. LEADERSHIP: CEX level leadership are quite generous in their own bonuses, but pass very little on to you as a normal employee.
