Decent Place to Work
Decent Place to Work
Management is flexible if you need time off.
Company-sponsored events and meals.
Employee stock purchase program.
Generous vacation time.
Overtime available.
A fun place to work.
Great coworkers.
Many of the experienced employees are earning less than the newer employees they're training.
Advancement seems difficult. Many employees who have worked there 20+ years are doing the same thing now that they were doing when they started.
There's a huge disconnect between what management thinks they know and what is happening on the production floor.
Spend more than 5 minutes a day amongst your employees whose careers you make decisions about.
Identify and develop those employees who are actually there for more than just a job.

Applied Materials Interview Experiences
Entry Level Engineer
The human resources person interviewed me first. Then, I interviewed with two more employees. The human resources interview was about 20 minutes, and the other two interviews were about an hour.
Engineering Co-Op
The interviewer was chill, but provided no feedback. He didn't ask many questions and didn't show interest in my responses. He asked some questions on the resume and followed up with some technical questions.
Mechanical Engineer
The interview process was quick. Additionally, it seemed simpler than others, but the questions felt like they did a better job filtering to the core of someone's strengths and weaknesses.
