Pros

One of the few semiconductor companies hiring in North Texas. If you want to live near Dallas and work in the semiconductor industry, the only other major employer is Qorvo. Profit sharing has paid out at the max of 20% for many years (but TI leans on PS as an expected portion of your overall compensation, so salaries might be lower than average in the industry).

Cons

I went back to TI after bouncing around the industry for a while. I remembered it as a laid-back company that didn't really fit in the tech industry stereotype, maybe due to its location in Texas. That is no longer the case. It's become much more competitive internally and there is constant pressure to do more with less. This is probably a plus from the perspective of an investor, but as an employee it means you have a poor work/life balance. Remote work has dwindled since the pandemic and is now just about gone. The official line is 5 days/wk in the office, but your manager may allow 1 day at home if you're lucky.
