Pros

The job pays fair and benefits are pretty good. At least for the moment. Those will be changing soon.

Cons

Transitioning from Freescale to NXP is causing a lot of changes, People being layed-off and being asked to a take early retirement. Then they replace them with TEMP's so they don't have to pay for the benefits.Constantly short-handed.Technicians being asked to cover operators so they can perform their own jobs in a quality way. Everyone is being pushed to do more with less people. Mistakes are being made because of the constantly trying to do too much with too little. Technical skills are under appreciated. Manager's poorly communicate with the floor and there is a "good old boys club"of former Freescale/Motorola management.

Pros

Pre-Merger Freescale seemed to have a CEO who was really engaged and seemed really vested in the best interests of the "employees" rather than just the "company". Post merger the CEO is very vague and high level in his inputs. You hardly ever hear from his immediate leadership team and the general direction of the company seems really confusing.

Cons

Post merger, it does not look like the company has a large vested interest in advancing manufacturing in house. Twice during town halls the CEO himself as spoken "proudly" how NXP has sent manufacturing to external sources and cut down on internal manufacturing. Not sure what that means when NXP has 5 of its own fabs (3 former FSL and 2 NXP). Lot of uncertainty revolving around in the company and lot of layoffs happening.
