Strong Culture, but fast paced

Pros

Access to executives. Encourages intiative, risk taking. Fast paced work culture so things are always evolving. In some ways, like a startup

Cons

Some strategy is not coherent. Depends on the whim of the CEO T. J . Rodgers. Enormous amount of time spent preparing for his presentations.

Pros

Work with brilliant minds Great benefits Aggressive atmosphere

Cons

Do they even make any money selling chips? It seemed like all management cared about was price per share. Yes, I know, they did sell chips and make money doing that. But watching lives get trashed because management wanted to see the price per share go up really stunk. Cypress is a real "churn and burn" pit. I think that one out of every twenty hires survives there for more than five years.
