Pros

Easy to gain experience in areas outside your area. Better corporate culture than some places, largely depends on your manager.

Cons

Excessively cost conscious. Poor local leadership at Gresham facility with an obsession for telling people how good their culture is. It doesn't matter how much you accomplish it's never enough.

Pros

Stable work with min standards benefits- 401K is based on how well the company does and have to work there 5 yrs to receive the full amount. 50% if lucky. I get $1 for $1 now and no cost health insurance for my family after leaving them. There are better jobs out there. They meeting says all the millons they are making and when I comes to review they have nothing for hard workers to give. The workers there are decent to each other except a few from engineering.

Cons

When managed by Microsemi - It was managed badly. Stock with Microchip dropped sharply. This culture is the "lucky you have a job" culture and if you are not in Engineering you get treated like second class citizens Don't expect raises, career opportunities or a decent company party anytime soon. People are leaving just like me. I would look elsewhere. Contractors take a very long time to get hired on.

Pros

Most of the people are awesome. Most days, I didn't mind going to work. They provide parties every couple of months, and the immediate management wants to support you.

Cons

Pay is insulting. I think a lot of fast food jobs pay more. And a Production Specialist is the lowest on the totem pole, and from the corporate level, you are trivial and replaceable. Tough times from bad management decisions fall on the Specialists.
