Pros

There are flexible hours for the most part. There is no micromanagement in my department. Many interesting projects to work on.

Cons

The pay at Amkor is lower than comparable companies overall. It can be very difficult to achieve recognition for any accomplishments. Some co-workers are allowed to telecommute, even though this is against company policy.

Learning opportunities hindered by toxic leadership and stagnation

Business Outlook

Pros

Solid learning ground for freshie.

Cons

1. Slow career growth. 2. Stagnant increments. 3. This one major from me: Toxic leadership culture. Some people in higher positions do not fully understand the actual operations or responsibilities under their management, which often leads to poor decision making, miscommunication, and unrealistic expectations toward employees. There is also a lack of proper guidance, support, and appreciation from management, creating a stressful and unhealthy working environment. Employees are expected to handle issues without clear direction, while concerns and feedback are not taken
