Pros

In general, co workers are held accountable for slacking off, inappropriate behavior, and attendance. It's your basic, old school wafer fab experience.

Cons

Old technology, greedy management and CEO, not very clean "clean" room, lax safety standards, worse industry pay in the area.

Pros

Work- life balance is very good Laid back environment. No one is stressing you or pushing your limits. "not sure if that's a pro or con" Stable profitable company with a proven business model.

Cons

Salaries are not competitive. No free tea or coffee, this will give you an idea of what to expect inside. If you are coming from an acquisition, forget all the benefits and pros, start building your resume and find another employer ASAP. They will never treat you fair as any new employee and if not laid off suddenly they will treat you badly.

Pros

stable, profitable semiconductor company with a broad product base in digital and analog chips.

Cons

Pays below market rates across the board. Less innovative in many ways - often buy a company, improve its operations and "milk" it, then do it over again. They trap acquired company employees with much lower base-pay and don't make up for the difference except through bonuses. Bonuses only get you back to what you were making before the aquisition - their bonus plan is in no way an incentive.
