Pros

The salary is good and the platform is of high-level.

Cons

The company culture at TSMC is toxic and unhealthy. There is a lack of trust and collaboration among colleagues, and people are constantly trying to outshine each other. The competitive atmosphere created a cutthroat environment where teamwork and support were rare. Additionally, there was a clear divide between management and employees, with little opportunity for open dialogue or feedback. This toxic culture negatively impacted morale and hindered productivity.
