      Pros

      Great engineers and great people overall. Lots of responsibilities and plenty of work to go around. A great place to learn.

      Cons

      Strong execution, but poor decision making. There is a lack of good leadership at the Santa Clara site. Management confuses blame as accountability. Fear is regarded as an effective management tool. No development or training, you are expected to perform with minimal guidance. Work is driven by punishment and sticks only. Great work often goes unappreciated but rather treat as expected. Lots of fighting and no work life balance.

      Mediocre at best…the grass is definitely greener

      Pros

      +High salaries relative to market +Flexible work arrangements (but only if your manager supports this or likes you…many managers will say no, or guilt trip you if you work from home with no reason). Flexibility is only a benefit if it's consistently applied for everyone, not just those employees with children. +Great experience for early career folks (stretch roles with a lot of responsibility) +Large amount of new college grads starting every year, easy to build up a great group of friends if you're a transplant to Dallas +Opportunities to work in international locations +Relatively flat org structure

      Cons

      -If you work here, expect to work 24/7. Work/life balance is virtually nonexistent. I work at another company now, and I have never been happier. TI was my first job out of college, so I thought this was normal. It's not! Don't be scared of trying something new if you're not happy. -"Old boys club" culture. Comms and HR are trying hard to turn it around and offer fun activities like Jack Kilby Day, but as long as the company is full of disgruntled people, the culture will definitely not be turning around anytime soon. -Lack of transparency around processes/procedures, especially compensation cycle, leads to employees distrusting HR -Forced distribution rankings for performance = getting zeroed out for yearly raises, even when there is not a known performance concern. Very bad for morale/engagement! Especially in suffering business units.

      Pros

      Focus on cost optimization. Good pay for what you do.

      Cons

      No room for imagination, innovation and risk taking. Can be stressful if you are engaged in a highly visibie activity. Management implements a standardized approach for most business activities. You spend a lot of time on endless reports.
