Pros
Great networking opportunity for new grads as TI has a puppy mill reputation Grass roots company (also a con) Up to 20% profit sharing Team can be great, but it is entirely up to who you get as a manager and I have only had one good manager. Sometimes you have the option to move internally to different roles
Cons
TI does not have a lot to offer with lower than average pay for the area, and very high turnover due to overworked, understaffed teams. Both management and so-called leadership are incompetent and exist only to boost their ego of being at the same company for over a decade. Even leadership likes to jump ship (to lead yet another TI group who mysteriously also had an opening) after wrecking existing roles and responsibilities. Poor planning and failed executions led to the blame game which is why employees suddenly got walked out the door during an unannounced layoff, Fall 2024. Bonus points: the CFO is not shy and will shoulder check you to get out of a crowd rather than a simple "excuse me."The same individual announced 5 days in office due to "poor financial performance," when in reality, demand went down because we are no longer in a chip shortage.
