      Sr. engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -Good benefits -Relatively low stress compared to other companies. Good work life balance -Flex time off policy is implemented fairly -Good culture in wafer engineering

      Cons

      -Extremely slow promotion cycle -Work is uninspiring for PhD applicants -Layoffs create job insecurity and changes to job responsibilities -False promises of bonuses returning, promotions, and team expansions for years. -PhDs will soon find themselves severely underpaid if it is their first job.

      Interesting work. Poor pay and progression

      Sr. engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The work is interesting. A lot of freedom is given to engineers to take their own initiative. Work life balance is good most of the time, but can get very busy and stressful at short notice. The company culture is friendly (no back biting, shaming, or bullying that I've seen). Great place to get ecperience in a large globally recognised company.

      Cons

      Progression is very slow. Very limited numbers of promotions available to staff each year. Pay is much lower than industry average. Pay increases with promotions are very poor (only £4K difference between Sr and Staff engineer). With high attrition The company is chronically understaffed and current staff is grossly underexperienced (sounds like good opportunity for progression, but its not). Past 2 years has seen a freeze on pay rises and bonuses (with high inflation this is a severe real-terms pay cut). Managers are under high pressure to meet unrealistic deadlines. Management (mid to senior level) act in a very short sighted manner (seems motivated more by short term self preservation than genuinely driving technology forward). Projects are started with full clear knowledge that they will be redundant to company needs before completion
