Pros: Best place for test development engr to start their career.

Cons: Low salary for an employee versus too many tasks.

Pros: Work life balance Salary Benefits Team dynamics

Cons: There are not many cons, and there are no significant cons.

Pros: - High starting salary for a fresh graduate - Has competitive benefits: meal allowance, shuttle, 13.5 month pay, variable bonus, car/house loan subsidy, educational assistance, RSU(if you're lucky to be given) - Great place to start if pursuing a career in semiconductor

Cons: - Low annual salary increase, sometimes less than inflation (which is unusually common for semiconductor companies in the PH) - Shortage of ATE testers resulting in night shift and weekend work schedule. Sometimes you will be asked to continue working instead of taking lunch due to very limited tester allocation - If you are the newest member of the team, chances are you will be the one to take the night shift, weekend schedule, and support the production on holidays - Politics is very evident. If the upper management doesn't know you, you will never be promoted. Promotion is based on 60% popularity 40% performance - You rarely have any say where your career will be heading. Internal mobility is decided by the management, never by the engineer - There is a lot of leg work for the engineer: pushing handler and other heavy equipment, repairing/troubleshooting the equipment, withdrawing units boards and spare parts, shipping units, and other things that can be assigned to an operator/technician but sadly they are part of the responsibilities of an engineer
