Pros

Surrounded by latest testing equipment to improve skills in hardware testing on wafer and module test.

Cons

Getting into design work is like pulling your own teeth out. They're super leftist liberals and if you show any sway from their ideology in passing conversation, you will not get in with the group, no matter how intelligent you are when it comes to design. If you don't get into the group, they shuv you into 2nd shift to work production lines. If you're dumb enough to believe their promisis and career path advice, you deserve all the bruises on your forehead from all the walls you're going to run into.

Pros

9/80 and every 2nd Friday off, generous vacation time.

Cons

The company is 100+ years old and functions almost entirely on inertia. Senior Management is totally disconnected from the day to day, and it shows in the content of their "community" video meetings. They talk about diversity but have no interest in applying it. Most of the time they totally ignore the needs of their disabled employees.
