Pros

Great steady job with little change over time. You can look forward to consistency here

Cons

No upward movement to those with degrees of various types if you don't stand out enough to be recognized by upper management.

Pros

a) Hanging out with friends b) Travelling around c) Sticking around with few engineers that know where the problem lies. These are the engineers being sideline by management. I learnt a lot from them, thank you.

Cons

There is be no 7nm technology by 2017/2018 as promised by the management team. Too bad I cannot type our the reasons here. a) Managers - clueless, and they are afraid of employees who are better compared to them. The managers never like direct reports that will challenge them. b) Backstabbing colleagues - never have a good solid team that excel in problem solving. Management favors a team leader that provide 0 CIP for 2 years or anyone that is a "yes" person.
