Pros

There are not many smart people there, so you can get away with not knowing anything, because there's no one there capable of calling you out on it.

Cons

They never tell the media any bad news, and they never tell their employees any good news. They exaggerate how good things are going to the public to generate interest for someone buying the company, while they exaggerate how bad things are going to their employees to keep expectations low for salary raises and bonuses. They're not a publicly traded company, so there's no law stopping them from doing this. Basically, Global Floundries is a vanity project for some oil billionaire who knows nothing about the semiconductor business.

Pros

Very supportive team and management to work with from the beginning. Many training classes need to be taken in moving forward to align with the company policies and technical procedures. Good benefits and competitive salary. Have a very positive plan for long term career and educational support tuition. The interview and hiring process are long but informative and responded promptly.

Cons

There are many training classes to take so it may put more stress on a new hire if you do not have a good plan.

Pros

Everyone is willing to help and the training is actually good training

Cons

If I didn’t know someone that worked since I was going to overnights I didn’t really meet anyone on my team except my manager once. Also I wouldn’t know who to reach out like manger wise if I didn’t know someone who already worked here
