Short Sighted and Stuck in the Past
Short Sighted and Stuck in the Past
TI has a few positive aspects.
The work is in a very stable market, which is hard to come by in the semiconductor industry. Their pay is reasonable, and there are several locations to work.
But that's about where it stops.
TI has no idea what the words "innovate" or "collaborate" mean. Sadly, the company is just too "cheap" that it costs them a fortune.
In the semiconductor markets today, there is way more cost savings in being innovative (using newer technologies, chemicals, methods, equipment, etc.), and TI spends all its time acting like the company in Michael J. Fox's movie, The Secret to My Success. Cutting resources and people to run cheaper and cheaper. But like Lightning McQueen, it's a short-term gain, long-term loss, and they just keep blowing tires.
However, that's not the worst part. The worst part is they treat people like any other expendable resource. The morale in this job is pretty low. So do they pay decently? Sure, but money doesn't make up for a miserable workplace.
Innovate and collaborate instead of dictating.
Switch to a performance-based reward system (bigger bonuses, raises, and promotions for the top performers).
