TSMC

Generally and relatively high year-package in Taiwan for almost all positions, especially in southern Taiwan.

Solid market share of the company, hence the job is quite stable in the long term.

Accepts people from many fields with many kinds of positions.

The package looks big, but the pay is very low. Most of the package comes from the quarter bonus, which means the package has a strong correlation with the company's performance that year.

Disastrous work-life balance. Overtime working, full-time standby, and holiday working are not only common but also continue for a very long time.

Slow learning curve of professional knowledge for each single field unless at the principal engineer level or higher.

Closed culture and knowledge (especially for system level). It takes a lot to learn these internal systems, but it leaves you with almost nothing when you step out the lobby.
