High Pay, Toxic Management, No Balance
High Pay, Toxic Management, No Balance
Their pay is better than most companies, but you have to work extremely long hours and weekends.
Zero work/life balance.
Unethical management. The manager in my department (Silicon Engineering Group) only cares what his/her boss thinks and tries whatever possible to please his/her boss. They consistently made up stories/lies to make themselves look good in front of others. If things go bad, they try their best to blame others and cover their faults.
Nonfunctional HR. HR plays a very weak role. Reporting management issues to HR does not help; instead, retaliation is what you can get.
