It Starts Off Great

Pros

Job starts off great when you're ramping up and learning new things, but it can quickly go downhill. Your manager will really make or break your experience so I was fortunate enough to have an amazing manager who was attentive despite being overloaded with work. Profit sharing and benefits are also a nice bonus. Getting 4 weeks of PTO during your first year when most companies only give 2 weeks is really nice. Depending on your team, the people you work with might be some of the nicest and most helpful people.

Cons

Overseas teams mean you work weird hours and have meetings after the end of typical working hours. Profit sharing is how the company gets away with underpaying their employees and avoiding higher salary raises. Quarterly layoffs this year helped the company lose some of its most experienced engineers which led to overwhelming the unexperienced engineers and low morale. Not much room for growth unless you want to pivot to a different role or become a manager. Some teams really embrace the Silicon Valley mentality of "if you don't lose sleep over your job, you're not working hard enough" and it leads to high turnover rates on these teams.

Firings and high pressure

Pros

There are some good teams and managers still here. The work is interesting.

Cons

Leadership pressure to set “unreasonable” or difficult goals which leads to lots of stress and long hours. Many cuts and management not allowed to discuss or informed prior. Stock awards have long vesting time. Some people think they were fired to avoid their stocks being payed out. Back to office I think was unnecessary.

Pros

Pay, Profit Sharing, Supportive of interns, Opportunities to change direction of career. There are really amazing people that will be your co workers. Can have good life work balance but that really depends on your role and team.

Cons

Layoffs are always there. It seems like with new leadership they want to layoff those that have been at the company for a long time and replace them with New College Grads. For the New College Grads, it can suck because you are inheriting something that is home grown/ custom/ created specifically for TI, so it can be difficult to learn. There have been NCGs laid off within 2 years. There is favoritism in who gets promoted to be managers. There are some great managers, but also some really bad ones. Micromanagement, bullying, harassment. Because they cut IT a lot, it can be very hard to get projects done. Projects can take years to complete.
