Pros

NIce facilities. Shiny tools. More interdisciplinary learning than other Fabs like Intel/Samsung. Some people actually know stuff and you can learn from them even though this population keeps going down

Cons

Career actually declines after the first 2 years. Review process (GPM) is one of the worst I have seen anywhere. They have a concept of peer review but it is worthless. Your peers could say you did a great job in working with them however if your manager wants to give you a bad rating, he disregards those peer reviews and gives you a horrible review and no one can question it. Good luck trying to get justice. All you end up hitting is a blank wall. No wonder people quit this hell hole. Managers take non citizens for granted holding them hostages with visas and green cards. Immigration office should shut this place down ASAP. If you want to see a career graveyard, come here. You shall see many. Mid level managers will be the main reason for this place going down.

Pros

Some great people and if you work during the day there are some opportunities.

Cons

This company is all about titles and having degrees. There is nothing wrong with that but if you have great work ethics and prove you can help you should be awarded.
