Pros

TI manages to recruit top of the line people. Great pay and benefits. Great efforts driving web first strategy. Amazing history of innovation. Opportunities to work across the globe.

Cons

Micro management and very short term financial perspectives have stifled innovation. Everything goes by the “playbook” and there isn’t much room to be creative. Heavy age bias. If you are over 35 and you have not made the cut to leadership, you probably won’t have your career progress here. You will be constantly watching new college grads that you train and develop grow in the organization and eventually become your boss while you stagnate. TI is the only major semiconductor company in Dallas and so leaving TI is also difficult if you are not willing to re locate. In summary it is a great place for new college grad. But if you are over 35 this is not the place.

Pros

TI is a great company with heavy cash flow. Some groups are more profitable than others, and typically there is a direct correlation between the group’s profitability and employee happiness.

Cons

The rotation program is a scam. Officially, TI HR will say you will be placed within the company based on business needs. This translates to the fact that statistically speaking, you will deploy to a group with the highest rate of turnover and to a position they couldn’t fill via direct hire. This is why you see an exodus of deployed rotators after 2 years or less with the company. To make matters worse, TI often couples technical achievement with management capability—leading to many issues. If you decide to go into the rotation program just know you are taking a shot in the dark that will not statistically be in your favor. My advice is to always choose the direct hire position over any rotation program if it’s a role you are interested in.
