Amazing camaraderie and culture, but senior management has lost the plot

Pros

Great people Good work-life balance, on the production team at least Fairly competitive pay structure for advanced roles if compared with companies in the valley Reasonable performance expectations

Cons

Boneheaded senior management. Director level and below are down to earth and capable of executing, but senior management all brought in from other companies in the last year or two are determined to fail while having feel-good company-wide chats about inclusion instead of building a realistic roadmap. Pay is also very much NOT competitive for labor employees, or for advanced roles when compared with any company just 20 miles east or south.

Pros

I've joined the newest location for FormFactor in Farmers Branch, TX. Everyone here is extremely helpful and seem excited to be part of the start-up team. There aren't big egos floating around the hallways which is pretty refreshing for a tech environment. I've collaborated with employees from our other locations and they are very nice/helpful too. The work is interesting and the pay and benefits are good compared to a lot of other employers in this area.

Cons

A lot of meetings for things that could be an email.
