Poor work culture, limited management thinking, lacking direction - Sales Cypress Semiconductor Employee Review

I left after 6+ years and can say I saw an ok company (Spansion) get absorbed into a terrible Cypress. Cypress is about placing blame. They are never about the customer, business partners or you the workers. When you tell them a marketing strategy from Cypress does not apply to legacy Spansion parts, they tell you that you are wrong. Then spend the next 2 years complaining about why sales for those parts have dropped - blaming distributors, sales and anyone other than the fact they tripled the pricing on commodity parts and priced us out of the market. Commodity parts don't work on their propriety based pricing model. I've watched an Exec VP fire our rep firm of the year in 2016 to replace them with his personal friends; and sales decline. Year after year Cypress has cut benefits (which are terrible now) with no regards to the employees. I've watched a manager Spansion fired for using business trips to take his wife/GF on to Europe and skip sales calls there get hired back by Cypress - because he's got buddies in the fold (he's a lousy manager by the way). They have absolutely bungled their lay off of customer service and outsourcing US/EU/PAC jobs to Malaysia. As they have for planning for multiple product lines, passing off their mistakes on the industry allocation. I will say the current CEO is better than the insanity of the ego driving, over his head TJ. I could care less that he dropped the F bomb in company letters but taking 3 hours for each company meeting to give you his movie reviews and post famous people quotes (which always included 2-3 of his own after JFK or someone else on his imagined level) was just embarrassing. His business choices were as arrogant and ill informed as the yes men he surrounded himself with. They Cypress is still in a fight with his insiders on the board and in the office 1-2 years later is exhausting. But I have nothing grand to say about Hassane, his milquetoast approach and inability to make any real decisions to lead the company to a better future is frustrating. There is virtually no chance of getting promoted. The constant revolving doors of Exec VP bring in their trusted folks as middle managers. Working hard gets you nowhere. But day to day is a challenge. About 50% of the people you work with is an adversarial interactions. The "not my job" culture of Cypress as everyone is held "accountable" so no one offers help way of business is tiring.
