Pros

On Semiconductor does a great job of shipping lots of commodity parts. The division I worked in was involved in designing custom chips for different industries (ASICs) which kept the design work interesting.

Cons

Division targets (goals) were out of the control of the workers. Also layoffs would occur depending on the strength of the entire company regardless of the needs/successes of the divisions. Seems like working shorthanded is the new trend in "efficiency".

Pros

Freat co workers everywhere in each department.

Cons

The GM has bad people skills and treats everyone as replaceable. Upper management thinks training should only take a month when it really takes years. Preaches saftey but does very little in actuality. Terrible staffing, after many layoffs we are left thin with no help, not enough people to fix everything. Promotions take too long ever after 5 star ratings each year
