Pros

Very relaxed. Steady job but subjected to retrenchment or downsizing exercises. Good if you want to just get monthly salary and relax. Good and relaxed pace to start learning the ropes to MNC practices. Standard benefits of MNC but minimum standards. Friendly colleagues and managers.

Cons

Ageing & old product. No new product. Global demand dwindling. Will lose out to semiconductor companies that emerged later as they are more profitable. Slowly lose your drive for career growth being there. Very very slow promotion rate. Lower than average pay. Very low bonuses at 1 month pay. OT flat rate and pretty low to improve cost. Lack of employee office welfare like coffee and meal allowances. Welfare of employee depends on bosses but still overall too little. Overall, localised upper management is not generous with rewarding employees. Different site/team has different treatment towards giving employees credit for their work, in short, there is distance bias. Pretty much retirement work. Not suitable for young people unless you get in and get out soon.

Pros

Great technology for the era of AI. Stock is doing well.

Cons

High performers have been laid off based on market/biz unit goals. Outsourcing/derisking is a thing lately.

Pros

Fast paced workplace. Lots of data to master SQL and data analysis

Cons

Toxic AF. Everybody seems to lower to 60% effort because the risk of getting tired is immense. If you give 100% and have to take a break and someone sees, the big boss will yell with a grumpy neurotic southern old man voice. Trust me, it is very unpleasant. If you are male, don't get hopes up for a promotion if there are any eligible girls. If it isn't done on purpose, then the general culture of cattiness and gossip will accomplish it anyway.
