Pros

people are nice work life balance is great money is decent

Cons

From a digital, lean, agile and data perspective, this company is super old school and back in the 2000. Everyone works with Excel. everything is bottom up and people can just decide not to use a tool or participate. the engineering department is carrying the whole organization on its back. The rest is absolutely old fashion, slow, no KPIs, only working on processes in power points, putting way too much lipstick on the pig ... it might be different in the engineering department but if you are ambitious, want to do cool stuff, you work in digital or business and you want to be in the top of the competition, you shouldn't come here. There is no young talent here and the energy is VERY VERY low and slow.

Pros

Professional Development: ASML offers great benefits, including tuition reimbursement and strong career growth paths for those who are proactive. It’s a fantastic place to build a resume and learn high-demand technical skills.  Talented Colleagues: You are surrounded by very smart, dedicated people. The collaborative nature of the engineering and manufacturing teams makes solving complex, "impossible" problems possible.

Cons

Management Consistency: Like many large organizations, your experience can be heavily dependent on your specific team or manager. While many departments are excellent, others can feel the weight of high-pressure deadlines and micromanagement. Bureaucracy: As the company has expanded, it has become more corporate. Be prepared for a high volume of meetings and a need to navigate internal processes to get things done.
