Pros

Investors have contributed billions of dollars to build this company and have created a whole new fab from scratch, bringing thousands of new manufacturing jobs to the U.S. Corporate office is small enough that it feels like a friendly place.

Cons

A tough market to enter. Not sure investors or executive management are able to make the company successful. Management tries to save costs through the usual means (from headcount to travel to small potatoes stuff), while recruiting executives they hope will provide salvation. Hierarchical culture.

Pros

Great benefits, good pay. Cafeteria is nice and facilities are well maintained. Good sense of teamwork and camaraderie among coworkers on same band level.

Cons

Low level employees are overworked due to departments being understaffed and the terrible attrition rate. Hostile work environment where the focus is to place blame instead of working together to solve the problems. Mid and upper level management show no respect or appreciation for workers so there is little morale. The thought of coming into work each day gave me nightmares.
