Texas Instruments Electrical Design Engineer reviews

cutting edge technology and decent compensation carer opportunities are good. But each business unit is on it's own so there is opportunity at times and then it is completely stalled. So if an engineer sticks with TI and finds a budgeoning business unit (like wireless in 90s), growth will be phenomenal. Othe the other hand if he joins the company when it is mature, growth will be compltely stalled. The HR intervention to improve the careers in such situations where a talented person joins the group in a mature phase is unimpressive. They just let young inexperienced engineers who grew with the group rule the roost. Sad situation. If you wonder how the business maintains profitability, it is b/c of intellectual captial built in earlier years.

Flexible work environment with pretty good benefits. Lots of opportunities to work in high tech products and learn new things. Overall a can do attitude in the company. The company also is pretty open to transferring within the company and has many many employees who are proud to be there over 20 years. Stock options and benefits in general as well as company attitude makes it a great place to work in terms of finding time off to have a life as needed.
