KLA

Great ESPP program applicable for annual package instead of base salary

Opportunities to involve in latest product development & field apps have impact on product roadmap & function design

Flexible working schedule

HVM apps serve for product warranty, therefore subjected to regular relocation per business purpose or frequent travel across sites per projects requirement; Location stability is not respected here. (mobility is)

Extremely tightened manpower (or outsourced engineers from AE or cheap labor country) but need to emulate competitor twice your resource.

The non-market-dominant products were poorly designed, where apps become the victim to "close the gap"

The career options for HVM team is relatively limited

The engineering team really need to get out of their comfy ivory temple to see what the field looks like, especially the software/algorithm folks.

Company need to find a way to retain people who prefer to settle down in one place (due to house buying or marriage or other thing), or those senior people would be like wash-free chopstick to the company.
