      Great team, except for one person

      Pros

      Pay and insurance was good. Work was straightforward. Most of the team was great to work with.

      Cons

      Middle mgmt selected an inexperienced team lead based on personal preference and not skill/experience/training. That person let bias, bitterness and a resentful grudge against me to lay me off and make me an example to all other team members. It was completely unwarranted and I should have sued.

      60+ hrs workload, 40 hrs pay

      Process engineer (e3)

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      They do hire. If you are one of the unluckiest PhD that can't get a job anywhere, AMAT might be your last choice. It's better than earning 40k a year as a postDoc nevertheless

      Cons

      I don't know how they manage to make their PE work 60-80 hrs every week, under a very sub-standard work environment, toxic relationships with co-workers, yet there is still very few complaints.

      Pros

      medical. insurance, education. not too much to say. you can tell from what are the differences from outside of their office buildings. lack of good maintenance and landscapes compares with AMD, Samsung, and Apple

      Cons

      mandatory overtime throughout holidays, weekends, 10hr/day plus 8 hours on Sunday. limited growth. promotions are through managers' personal favorable judges and drinking buddy
