Pros

Highly skilled and friendly workforce make the daily work interesting. The company services are in demand as more companies move to "system on a chip" type designs.

Cons

Poor long term vision, too many CEO's, few with direct semiconductor manufacturing experience. The BOD is very short term/profit oriented.

Pros

The only pro in Fab 8 is the manager of the cafeteria! What an amazing job he does every day! Portions are good and the coffee is delicious.

Cons

Prices can be high. Sushi can get soggy sometimes. TIP: If you place two slices of bread either side of your giant self-serve salad, the check out lady will only charge you for a sandwich. Also be nice to the short order cooks. Everyone is allowed make mistakes sometimes.

Pros

If any, I would say the health benefits

Cons

Low pay Expect too much Night shift workers get no premium when taking vacation day Every holiday is paid in 8 hour blocks, even though we work 12 hours Vacation time is in 8 hour blocks, 1 day worked=8hours for vacation accrual, we work 12 hour nights If holiday falls on day off, you get 8 hours pay, we work 12 Conclusion-if in production, never ever work the night shift because it will be 2-4 thousand dollars less a year than your day shift counterparts Shift premium for 12 hour nights is far far from industry standards, although the night shift does 60% or more of the work No raises or bonuses, even though you will be told that you will get them
