Pros

You can experience how a leading edge semiconductor company operates. A lot of interaction with major equipment suppliers and opportunities to work with some excellent engineers...before they leave soon

Cons

This company is like a dead meat or prey to different groups of people from failed companies. One group of people from a failed company shows up, draws cash from the company and leaves. And next group of people shows up and doing the same thing and it repeats. The owner doesn't know anything about semiconductor and the management try to get as much money as they can during their stay without long term vision to make this company successful. No strategy or competence in management... directors and above.

Pros

Very supportive team and management to work with from the beginning. Many training classes need to be taken in moving forward to align with the company policies and technical procedures. Good benefits and competitive salary. Have a very positive plan for long term career and educational support tuition. The interview and hiring process are long but informative and responded promptly.

Cons

There are many training classes to take so it may put more stress on a new hire if you do not have a good plan.

Pros

Great team in Burlington. Diverse technology portfolio provides endless opportunity to learn.

Cons

Non-revenue support groups have small budgets and are seen as cost-burdens. Raises and promotions are behind the industry.
