Pros

- A good place to pick-up semiconductor fabrication process and know-how (multiple online platforms and offline classes). - Good work-life balance - Good internal data and reporting systems - Clear company vision and goals from the top management

Cons

- Lower salary than local semiconductor industrial peers - Very slow career advancement. The fab managers care more about the year of experience rather than the actual performance. Therefore, for young engineers, they will be treated equally even though one can outperform other peers (in my department, very few engineers stay longer than 3-4 years). -

Pros

The pros for GlobalFoundries heavily out weigh the cons as an intern. I have experienced a welcoming and supportive environment from my team and coworkers. I have also been given the opportunity to heavily contribute to projects on site and make an impact instead of just observing.

Cons

As an intern, the experience goes by quickly, and there is always more to learn than time allows. Some projects and processes can have steep learning curves at first, but support is always readily available.
