Pros
  • Unmatched silicon tape-out schedules due to fast tape-outs owing to tight product schedules.
  • We get to learn a lot about the silicon behavior of the circuit we design.
  • If the tape-out cycle is every 3 months, we can get silicon-wafer level feedback 4 times a year.
  • This gives us an almost 2-3 times steeper learning curve as compared to most other companies in this industry.
  • Good salary packages.
Cons

Very tight product schedules.

Not much time to innovate, plan, think, and brainstorm with colleagues.

Colleagues are almost non-conversant in English, which slows down the learning curve.

Advice to Management

Give more flexibility to your employees in terms of work hours and work-from-home. Overhaul the performance evaluation system.
