Pros

- Interesting technology - Innovative products and solutions

Cons

- ASM has no technical training whatsoever. Expect to spend excessive time learning about their hardware and technology. - 1/10 hardware folks are incredibly knowledgeable, and do 90% of the work. The remainder are disconnected from the technology, and expectations for them are asymmetrical to the expectations for process engineers. - Minimum of 50-55 hours per week. Some work 80+, but I refuse. - There are virtually no women in the workplace. Anecdotally I would say 90% are men, and the technical leadership team is almost exclusively men.

Used To Be Great Now it's Going Downhill

Pros

Overall compensation and benefits are good. Work life balance is okay.

Cons

No direction from leadership. Endless layoffs started happening within the past year when the company prior never did layoffs. New CEO is bringing a toxic culture. Great old leaders are being replaced with underqualified leaders that don't even bother talking to the team and they are creating unnecessary problems within the team.

Pros

Pay is on par with other semiconductor jobs.

Cons

Job expectations in practice are different that what was discussed during the hiring process. Expectation was M-F day shift 8-10 hours a day. They under hired and are now demanding night shifts, weekends and working to max of 60hrs/week. Not what we signed up for.
