I’m now on anxiety medication, coworker had heart attack, people are leaving
Pros
Gain resume experience at the cost of your health but overall no pros, run as fast as you can. TI is not the same as 10-20 years ago, the great engineers who’ve built TI, have already left this place.
Cons
1. Unreasonable working conditions, 80+ hours for minimum pay, this is slavery. 2. If you speak up, management will shut you down and retaliate 3. Upper and mid level managers are highly incompetent, non-technical, not even qualified to lead the business 4. They will push you until the breaking point with no bonus, no extra pay and spit you out once they’re done with you and replace you with a new college graduate until they burn them out as well. 5. Meetings on New Year’s Day and holidays, my manager called me for meetings and when I pushed back, they cut my bonus and retaliated. 6. Highly political place 7. Managers only care about their own career and bonus, they cut corners and costs. They try to run a workload of 10 people and with a team of 3 with unreasonable deadlines. 8. People come and leave with anxiety pills and frequent doctor visits 9. Mandatory 5 days a week in person show ups, HR is monitoring daily badge ins.
