Pros

Though TSMC is a foundry but the office and working environment are pretty friendly. 1. The package is competitive 2. The employee's welfare is good with quality food, gym, and coffee shop in the rest area. 3. The overtime is paid.

Cons

1. Most of the jobs need to work in morning and night shifts, even you are an senior engineer. 2. Lack of flexibility in the working environment. Most of time, you work by using software and PC to control the system. 3. Lack of life and work balance.

Pros

TSMC brand name & the latest technology node to work.

Cons

Too many hierarchies. Work Life Balance unable to meet with targets. Profit sharing (variable pay) is too much The worst for non Taiwanese engineers to work in Taiwan. Too much secretive style of working. Employee is cut from family and external world, once @ office. No smartphones allowed inside office. Too much mental stress and peer pressure on employee to achieve decent grade.
