Pros

Decent salaries this area of NY

Cons

The work culture continues to be toxic. While many will say this was true years ago and is now improved, it has just been concealed. The current management team is territorial and out to attack anyone not on their own teams. There is no sense of collaboration or coming together to achieve the company’s goals. Additionally, women are not protected from unwanted advances by male colleagues, particularly if they are an executive. When reported to HR, no action was taken, not even assisting the female employee in finding a new role away from the team.

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.
