Texas Instruments reviews

TI has so much bureaucracy that it takes forever to get anything done. They throw money into new facilities while encouraging detrimental cost savings initiatives at older ones. It frequently gets to the point where preventative or even corrective maintenance activities turn into emergencies from being pushed off for so long. I thought I’d work there until I retired. In reality, job security is nonexistent now that they’ve started layoffs.

At Texas Instruments, there is a strong emphasis on financial results at the expense of employee well-being. Performance expectations are frequently shifted, and meeting goals often results in the bar being raised without acknowledgment. Management has a pattern of misrepresenting facts, taking credit for employees' accomplishments, and either exaggerating or inventing performance issues. Many leadership practices run counter to what is taught in reputable MBA programs regarding ethical and effective management. Career advancement is limited and largely reserved for a select few and then limited to within departments. Based on my experience, I would not recommend working at TI.
