TSMC reviews

-Every week has early day shift (6-3 pm), normal day shift (9-6 pm) rotate. Each month also has one week night shift (3-12 pm). Usual overtime at least 1-2h without pay. Completely destroying personal life and bad for health. Some teams also have 12h over night shifts (Tip: look at the offer, it never mentions working hours/days per week, so I would recommend be sure to clarify it before accepting) -Culture to promote overtime without pay -A lot of managers, and they all come to assign you tasks -> usually one engineer answers to multiple supervisors -though there are sicks days, management usually don't like you take them -Reduced benefits compare with those hired 2 years ago when the retaining bonus is about 4 times of current ones

Like any huge company, there's some degree of unthinking bureaucracy. And let's be honest, being at the bottom of the ladder just plain sucks, everywhere. Engineers and managers have it a lot better.
