Pros: It used to have good benefits and culture. It can be a good learning career if the employee is active and aggressive. The working environment is well maintained, plus the employer sponsored a free cell phone. There is good exposure to both engineering R&D and mass production systems.

Cons: What made SanDisk great is starting to fade away and SanDisk is becoming more average. People are very conservative and everyone is rather protecting the status quo than taking a risk of making real changes for the benefit of being more efficient. SanDisk typically follows a 3-year up and down cycle and right now it is in the down phase. One year of free dinner every evening can be followed by another without a single one. Not sure if there will be another up phase since it is being acquired by WD. Management is rigid with lots of politics. The management team is not adapted to technology changes and the business model isn't working out anymore.

Pros: Good products and domain. The company offers an opportunity to do an M.Tech at BITS Pilani.

Cons: Horrible environment, with no opportunity to grow.

Pros: Good people and good work. Cool campus, food, gym, etc. Competitive salaries.

Cons: Management is not that great. Direction keeps changing and deadlines keep getting missed. Employees who are affected by this. Not sure if this place will be the same in the future with WD integration.
