Pros

Good Benefits, GM Chan is pro employee

Cons

All data is Manual from extraction to compilation, Company does not invest for better system. Machines is from 80s and does not invest in new technology. Everything must follow by the book, since no flexibity of rules towards innovation and ideas. suggestion will takes months to be approved instead of straight forward execution. This will eat up your time and be wasted. Old timers will make you feel like you dont belong to the group as family thats why you may feel as outcast. company does not train supervisors to be as leaders thats why their is very high turnover rate. supervisors think highly to their selves since they have longer stay than you.No training will be given to you except during your orientation about company policy. If you will not ask you will not know.

Pros

Very poorly managed company in Woburn. Have been in business more than 10 years, yet they make more mistakes than any 10 startup companies. Safety is nonexistent, they want to be safe but don't have the time or money for it. They makeup yield numbers to keep others happy but in reality, if a customer needs 10 wafers, they start 16 and hope they get 10 usable wafers from the bunch.

Cons

Poor pay, long hours, lots of buck-passing, little to no paid time off. To say the company is unsafe would be wrong, they don't care about safety. I think they spend more money paying off OSHA then they send on PPE.
