Business Outlook
Pros
The medical and dental benefit plans are great. It is a good company for someone who wants to work for a government agency. Globalfoundries is a subsidiary of the UAE government. You should understand that before you join.
Cons
Globalfoundries lost more talented engineers and managers than most companies ever had. It drew them in by selling them on the idea of a technology company. After people join, they realize the company is part of the UAE government. If you join expecting accountability to profit targets and product launch dates, you will be disappointed. It is run by politics, not by business metrics.
