Vantaggi
My supervisor was amazing and worked hard to make herself available to her staff. I also really enjoyed the autonomy of just being able to do my job without being micromanaged.
Svantaggi
This is where it gets dicey. I wasn't at Micron for a long period of time, long enough to know that it was not what I wanted to do long term. If you're someone who needs a variety of tasks; this job isn't for you. If you're someone who wants to make a difference or has ideas about change management; this job is not for you. My job consisted of "managing" revenue for a sole distributor who did pretty much whatever they wanted. This distributor is larger than Micron ever will be and Micron fails to see that this distributor will not adhere to Micron's ways. Rather than finding a solution or instituting any kind of change; we were just forced to go through meeting after meeting about how horrible this distributor was. Micron is not interested in a solution to their problem; instead they're just going to go through multiple accountants who will eventually realize that this is a dumpster fire that is never going to be put out....and they leave. That is just the Con about the job itself; there is a whole list of cons about the company overall. People talk about the longevity of the staff here but when you actually talk to these employees they all the say the same thing; that the work sucks and the company blows but Micron pays better than everyone else so they're enslaved by their paychecks. It's a very common theme here. So is there rank and file system. I was never made aware of their "forced ranking system" performance management system. Had I known about it, I wouldn't have considered the offer. That's an archaic way to manage people and all it does is instill mistrust and encourages competition among teammates instead of collaboration. This has been the most depressing environment I have ever worked in, and I've worked for the IRS if that tells you anything. The finance area is a sea of narrow, high walled, gray cubicles and there is zero natural light on this floor. No one really talks to each other because we're all viewed as competition and nothing about this place encourages collaboration which fits in well with the "every man for himself" mentality that is prevalent here. This isn't a company....it's the Hunger Games.
