Pros

Excellent balance of practicality versus perfection Good work is appreciated & awarded Many good engineers, designers and scientists Convenient location (Eindhoven and veldhoven are small and convenient to find a house) It is possible to show initiative and do meaningful work

Cons

Working environment (office, parkings, toilets) not optimal, company keeps recruiting and as a result it is a bit cramped in some buildings Legacy rules: particularly for SW this is a pain Not a clear growth path, promotion is hard Mostly driven by HW design mentality, while many jobs are related to SW. products are too specific, limited career moves outside ASML

Pros

Location is good and near freeway, they make a crucial technology for the world to function

Cons

Toxic environment. Selective enforcement, antisemitic DEI culture, tattle tale rat snitch employees, managers play favorites, managers move the goal post after you were supposed to earn a salary increase. too many foreigners in management and not enough americans. DEI is a joke and is run by a racist black women. Company will burn you and punish you for problems someoen else created and punish you for it despite no power to fix the issue yourself.
