Pros

Benefit-wise, it is quite good, and it follows how a USA MNC is. The team really depends on which department you are in.

Cons

If you work as MFG IT, the life is suck and there is no work life balance as you have to support 24/7. Especially if you are supporting Assembly, Test and Module or backend of the manufacturing. Everything is a mess and recently with new India Fab it is even a nightmare. Many weekend OnCall and meeting because of bad planning and inexperience user.

Advice to Management

Don't be too ambitious or optimistic when it comes to converting the backbone of a system for whole manufacturing. An old system that can work for years has its own reasons and has gone through millions of enhancements and feedback. Directly converting a system within a year and without a plan B is not a smart move.
