KLA-Tencor used to be a good place to work with upward mobility. Those days are gone and are never coming back.
KLA-Tencor is a meat grinder. They have a what have you done today attitude toward employees. You have to look out for yourself because your manager isn't going to do anything for you.
Since Rick Wallace became CEO KT has been racing to the bottom to send jobs overseas. They will work you 80+ hours a week, holidays, weekends, and send you all over the world on a moment's notice and never give you any credit for anything on your review or raises.
You have no loyalty to long-term employees.
People with 20 or more years with the company were kicked out the door and their jobs were sent to Asia.
Shame on you.

I met the recruiter at the school. A phone interview with the hiring manager went over some basic questions. Then I had an on site interview. There was a presentation for 30 mins. I had a meeting with 5 people. The process is very fast.
