Pros

ASML produce some the most advance tools in the world. Great opportunity to learn amazing high level technical genres. Most colleagues are nice, helpful and genuine. Opportunity to work on at least 3 different continents if you like to travel. European company a plus, different cultures and back ground help keeps company very dynamic with new procedures and processes. Profit sharing great, at the end of year. Overall Corporate ASML is a great place to work with a life balance.

Cons

Salary pay tends to be a little lower than industry standards, raises are pretty flat or small, majority of the time. Lots of dead weight with leadership and management teams. No real programs available to the general massive whom want to climb the corporate ladder. If your manager or leadership team doesn't like you, your pretty much stuck. As an international diverse a company, that diversity does not reflect in supervisor, upper management or executive board levels. Policies at corporate level is good, when implemented at local level leadership teams seem to be disconnected from original scope or definitions of policies. Still have some pockets of the good old boys crew no new members allowed, I'm sure they are fading away slowly.

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.
