Pros

People have passion and desire to do well. They are truly on the edge of technology and one of the only companies in the market doing this type of work.

Cons

Tightly held, micro-managed, respect for individuals as professionals is missing, ability to success and think on your own is great hampered by the strong central control of one person.

Business Outlook

Pros

Employee events and community work would be the high points at Cymer followed by the technology.

Cons

Too many managers and not enough people doing the work. Managers fail to give priority to tasks and when they do it becomes a moving target. Processes are not defined. You have to chase down a VP to purchase anything. They give you a company cell phone and you get calls at all hours. 80% of my job are tasks that do not require an engineering degree. Politics rule.
