Great culture but shifts can be tiring

Field engineer ii

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great Company to work for. They have great culture. Field engineers work on rotation at customers' FAB in a 12 hours shift. one week 3 days and one week 4 days. some trainings take place overseas in countries like Taiwan and Netherlands or inside USA like San Diego.

Cons

Shifts can be tiring sometimes if there is a non stop task going on or an emergency maintenance or failure to be fixed. Great for starters or people who love working on machines

Toxic environment undermines valuable technology work

Supplier quality engineer (sqe)

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Location is good and near freeway, they make a crucial technology for the world to function

Cons

Toxic environment. Selective enforcement, antisemitic DEI culture, tattle tale rat snitch employees, managers play favorites, managers move the goal post after you were supposed to earn a salary increase. too many foreigners in management and not enough americans. DEI is a joke and is run by a racist black women. Company will burn you and punish you for problems someoen else created and punish you for it despite no power to fix the issue yourself.

Great hands-on experience but challenging work-life balance

System install engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

You get hands-on experience with the most advanced lithography systems in the world (EUV), which looks excellent on a resume and builds serious technical depth. Compensation and bonuses are competitive within the industry, and benefits are solid. The team is full of skilled engineers, so you learn a lot of practical problem-solving on the job. As an industry leader, the company offers stable employment, and there's real satisfaction in taking a tool from installation all the way to volume production at major customer fabs.

Cons

During installation periods, the hours are long, and shift work plus on-call duty is the norm — when schedules are tight, work-life balance basically disappears. You spend long stretches in the cleanroom, the work is physically demanding, and travel or customer-site assignments are frequent. Internal processes and cross-department communication can be slow, and most of the pressure comes from meeting customer deadlines.
