Pros

Many opportunities for career developmnet, cross-training, attending training off-campus. Good salaries and benefits.

Cons

No upward mobility. Very much an old boys club. No women in managment or corporate-level positions. Corporate level employees are never laid off, only rank and file. Very political.

Pros

If you have the drive and energy, AMAT provides a good opportunity for learning about the industry. You will be given more responsibility and duties than you can handle, so it is also an opportunity to grow.

Cons

Workers are treated like machines. Worker loyalty and dedicated service are not valued. Work-life balance is 90% work. Senior leadership are not held accountable for their actions.
