Not good for a career - Engineer Analog Devices Employee Review

Management is completely out of touch and morale remains low especially at the old LTC Milpitas location in California. They continue to layoff people whom they needed to keep due to their ignorance and then find out the hard way, but only after it's too late. Your success is mostly determined by your visibility because if you quietly do excellent technical work you are a real layoff target. Certain managers will intentionally keep your visibility down when you have skills and they use those skills to advance their own status thus insuring your status always remains the same until you are eventually targeted for eventual layoff. Favoritism and abuse also run a muck in certain groups and is swept under the rug by HR despite employee complaints. Employees quietly complain to each other, but are afraid to raise concerns for fear of retribution which almost always happens if and when someone does.
