Pros

Positive and healthy work environment with no micromanagement Strong focus on learning and career growth, providing ample opportunities for professional development Supportive and approachable management that encourages guidance and collaboration High level of transparency regarding company goals, progress, and direction

Cons

Compensation should be aligned with market standards to remain competitive and fair Return-to-Office (RTO) policy should be flexible, allowing work-from-home for roles where the work can be effectively performed remotely, rather than enforcing mandatory office presence

Pros

I have to say the experience has been everything I hoped for. The hiring process was straightforward and well-organized – communication was clear throughout, the interviewers were respectful of my time, and I always knew where I stood in the process. It never felt like I was left in the dark. Once I started, the onboarding was welcoming and the team made me feel like part of the group right away. My manager and senior management team has been genuinely supportive – open to questions, provides clear direction, and actually listens. There's a real culture of collaboration here where people are willing to help each other out. Semtech works on cutting-edge technology and it shows in the caliber of the people here. I'm excited to be part of Semtech and come to work. Highly recommend for anyone considering making a move.

Cons

I have nothing to criticize

Pros

Guaranteed overtime bi-weekly as you work 36hrs one week and 48hrs the next.

Cons

Management does not advocate for their employees, you do not get fairly compensated for the work you do, "merit based" raises are minimal and the same monetary value across the board, and they'll say they'll hire you on after 90 days as a temp and on average make you wait 6months.
