Texas Instruments reviews

Remote design center? Beware. Revenue drives your continued employment. Don't expect any loyalty from upper-management.

Advancement and opportunities are more dependent on your timing (joining the group), mentorship (find one), your soft skills (like-ability, communications, appearance) and your internal management's capability to advocate your skills, rather than your technical skills and work ethic alone. It's a very inaccurate expectation to think that performance and hard work alone pays off in any corporate culture. This is not a TI specific "con" its a hard lesson for all employees of any larger corporations.
