Pros

Bring a process and equipment engineer in Manufacturing has taught me a lot of technical skills that will forever stay with me. You will learn how to be creative and how the semiconductor industry works.

Cons

Manufacturing work life balance is hell. You will be on call 24/7 and trust me you will get called. Manufacturing doesn’t take care of their employees well. Always under constant stress and worries upper management will come down at you for every little thing. It’s also not very motivating seeing the IT and business department having parties, free food, better deal, etc every week while your manufacturing engineers just watch and work all the time.

Team has reduced to 1/3 of original size in less than 2 years, but BU is mostly hiring in India Refuses to hire externally in US (only internal reqs) to fill roles lost from attrition, instead management dumps responsibilities on rest of team members (with no pay raise to match) Management refused to address 2025 layoffs, employee morale is very low Limited mobility and (capped) yearly performance bonus Restructured profit sharing to effectively be a pay cut (-7%) Unclear job description, constantly changing priorities, management is out of touch with employees Innovation isn't emphasized, new products are mostly IP re-use Employee burn-out common Definite decline in work culture since 2023 RSU vesting schedule is bad (4 years)
