Some good, some bad, an unclear future
Some good, some bad, an unclear future
Working for a leader in the semiconductor, mobile, and wireless industry.
Some groups are more engaging and interesting to work for than others.
Compensation and benefits can't be beat (at least in San Diego).
Political atmosphere within management. Expected at most companies, but the Good Ol' Boys network for those who started at the company 15-20 years ago before it really grew up is alive and well. It makes it difficult to get opportunity if you are looking for it.
Easy to get pigeon-holed.
If the company knows where it wants to go in the future during challenging times, it doesn't do a good job letting its employees know.
Look hard in the mirror and ask yourself if you're actually contributing to the future of the company or just collecting the big paycheck.
