Pros

Biggest semiconductor foundry in the world. Pride to belong and worked for such a successful company "The story of a better pay check" than the average companies Lots of money = lots of respect?

Cons

Military style management. Competitve environment leading to selfishness. Severe hierarchy differentiation Hard (for me at least) to make loyal or trustworthy friends Attitude problems: money runs company's culture Double personality: money runs people
