Was a GREAT company to work for as an engineer, but increasingly badly run - IC Designer Texas Instruments Employee Review

Over the last five years, management has moved in a very bad direction. Too much management change, inability to set a plan and stick with it long enough to get positive results. Micromanagement rife at every level, too many completely non-technical people in charge of technical people, bad news unacceptable. Evidence of "shoot the messenger" behavior. People are holding off from reporting bad news for fear of consequences. Increasing perception that upper management does not understand the value in experience. This is not healthy.
