Pros
1. Customer interfacing experience 2. Learn semi cap equipment industry and technology trends
Cons
In one line- Leave Analytical Mind (LAM) 1. No interest in advancing technology 2. Politically driven interests 3. Personal interests first 4. Strongly believe in long hours with absolutely no thinking or logical approach: believes in data collection over data analysis 5. Falsified notion of "customer is God, and local accounts team is God" The logo calls for "Customer, Company and Employee". As a matter of fact, it works the other way around. But who doesn't. As an individual, if I cannot focus on myself (my performance, my growth, my career, my future)- how can I contribute for the company and hence the customer? Company calls for socialism (or can I say communism) in a capitalist competition..., However, reality is, in this company- from Manager--> VP, its all about themselves and convincing the food chain on their mere existence in the company. In regards to considering Lam as their next potential employee: I cannot advice senior engineers or managers on their choice, I would assume they are more informed. For new college grads- stay away from this company. Its OK to wait and pick the right one.
