Texas Instruments reviews about "pay"

Pushing for a return to office despite work from home contracts having been signed.

Lots of layoffs and re-orgs. I was here for 2 years and witnessed about 4 re-orgs and 2 mass layoffs. Pay is not competitive and profit sharing is an excuse to pay less. Something fishy going on with upper management and C-Suite - they're all getting richer whilst doing mass layoffs and giving crap bonuses. Work culture is toxic - constantly expecting you to work in off hours and there is definitely a hiring freeze in IT while the company is building new fabs. RTO 5 days a week is not flexible and not worth it. Dallas area is boring. Just terrible management. These guys have no clue what they're doing. If you are lucky to have a choice in your next job don't accept one here please... My former boss held off for 8 months (from 2024 into 2025) on hiring a new team member for my team. Managers get a bonus for money they save the company. He got a fat bonus while I struggled :) Previous CEO did great and fostered a good environment. Haviv is terrible. So many layoffs since him. Seems like TI wants to move all of IT to India.

Changing culture, closed on-site cafeteria

Little faith in executive leadership (recent layoffs caused it to drop even further), little too much focus on "cost efficiency", work health insurance premiums increasing in price, issues with retaining talent, little opportunity for progression as a technician.

Pay is better at other companies, however that being said a job at TI is very secure, unlike other higher paying companies such as Tesla or Apple which are notorious for mass layoffs.

Layed off huge chunk of lehi work force. No notice, pretty indiscriminate. People who would pull all nighters for TI. People who had been at the site for 15+ years. No respect for the employees. Told to kick the bucket one random day with no warning and only given a 5 minute meeting to tell everyone to leave and that there positions were no longer needed. No "thank you for all your work", No "we are sorry". A company lead by the blind. Every since the last fab manager left there has been little to no real leadership.

Things can be very stressful near deadlines, when production isn’t moving or when they decide to cut budgets. They don’t give you the tools you need to do a good job. Most managers don’t actually pay attention to what people do so that can be a benefit if you are trying to get payed to do nothing but, if you are trying to do a good job it’s incredibly frustrating.

Upper Management clueless -lots of micromanaging

The execs don't give a crap about the employees. All they care about is maximizing profit margins. In my time at TI, I watched as just about every employee perk was cut, to save money. No I and hundreds of my coworkers who helped get LFAB up and running were laid off for cost cutting measures. Good riddance.
