It’s gotten better, but Technician compensation is still weak. - Facilities Technician GlobalFoundries Employee Review

HR refuses to acknowledge they have an attrition problem. They make uninformed decisions about personnel with the insistence that they ARE informed. Compare Technician compensation to that of Target distribution center. That’s right, Target. Attrition- Not going to beat a dead horse here, but when you have people that have spent 5+ years with the company and make less than inexperienced new hires what does that say about 1.) merit increase programs 2.)career growth opportunity 3.)incentive for staying. Their philosophy is to underpay their people (top performers included) until they actually find a better paying job and wait til they’re out the door to compensate them. “Sorry that ship has sailed and my mind was made up months ago” Keep your people happy and they won’t look in the 1st place No incentive for being a top performer. You’re going to get the same “meets expectations” review score as the guy that just shows up No reward for the guys that got left behind and still stuck it out through the tough years.
