Pros

For hourly employees it's OK because overtime is offered. The compressed work week allows many days off. They pay a percentage for continued education.

Cons

The companies management could use some work. On the day shifts you have about six leads/supervisors for 30 production technicians on shift. That does not include the fab manager and director. That is more management than during the six inch upgrades. I do not understand how that is lean manufacturing. The production floor has high turnover because of this. Equipment support also has two directors than do not make very educated decisions, Process engineering also has too many managers with one per area. This facility is too small for that.

Pros

It's a large company, if you are with the right manager, there are professional training opportunities. Salary range is commensurate with other large semiconductor companies.

Cons

Downsides- the Santa Clara Design center, it is a struggling business unit in decline. Many former National Semi managers hold mgmt positions so they bring that bureaucratic culture and are not as agile as they should be.
