Pros

Amazing Workforce, great co-workers. Working shift work you are almost like a family because you spend so much time with each other, a lot of the facilities departments embrace that feeling.

Cons

Promotions and Merit Raises Cycling is currently bad 7 month process to get a crappy raise, the best one I received was 4% my 1st year, ever since that point its been crappy and that's being a lead technician on shift looked as the trainer for new staff

Pros

The people at GF are kind and knowledgeable.

Cons

As an intern, projects can be slow to uptake if tools are down. Always ask around for other jobs/tasks when your own project cannot progress.

Pros

Real project ownership — you're trusted with work that impacts the business, not just busy work. Strong mentorship and support from experienced engineers and leaders. Exposure to cutting-edge semiconductor manufacturing and technology. Plenty of networking opportunities with interns, managers, executives, and cross-functional teams. Professional development through training sessions, workshops, and leadership events. Fun intern community with social events, tours, challenges, and networking activities. Great opportunity to explore different career paths within a large global company.

Cons

The learning curve can be steep, especially if you're new to semiconductors. Large-company processes and approvals can sometimes move slowly. Manufacturing environments can be fast-paced and dependent on production schedules. Some projects may be too large to fully complete within a single summer.
