Great Company but arrogant, poor, and Unprofessional leadership

Pros

The people in general are good people. There is a select inter circle of people that abuse their political influence through the CEO.

Cons

Retention, average design group (they think they are the best - legend in their own minds). Unprofessional work environment, dishonest and disingenuous leadership. Poor diversification of product portfolio. Market group and product managers are worthless. Focus on one customer. There are some review plants in the Glass Door system that were done by the HR and select employees to bump Cirrus Logic appearance. Do not believe them. Don't be a lemming, the cliff is coming so for this company. They just can't see it because of their own arrogance.

Thanks for the feedback. It's worth noting that the company's attrition rate is well below the industry mean. Also, in data taken from employee surveys conducted by the Great Place to Work Institute, the company rates high on the overall "trust" factor, and no one is ever instructed, encouraged or incentivized to post slanted, positive reviews. In 2011, Cirrus Logic CEO Jason Rhode was named EE Times' Executive of the Year.

Nice office location downtown but already out of space.

Company can't recruit and retain employees.

Thanks for the review. As the reviewer notes, the company moved to downtown Austin in the summer of 2012 in the midst of a multiyear growth spurt, both financially and in headcount. That latter fact seems to run counter to the claim that the "company can't recruit"… given the significant rise in headcount during the past several years. Also, as previous company responses have noted, Cirrus Logic's retention rate is significantly lower than industry averages.

Pros

A large company with a family feel. Bosses were very well educated. Team work was first priority. Nice benefits.

Cons

Upper Management was out of touch with their workers. More interested in meetings than in getting work done.

It's worth noting that Cirrus Logic no longer has offices in California as of 2004. With a cultural overhaul and new CEO leadership in Jason Rhode in 2007, we believe that this former employee would like the "new" Cirrus Logic much, much better! ; )
