Pros

If you have the drive and energy, AMAT provides a good opportunity for learning about the industry. You will be given more responsibility and duties than you can handle, so it is also an opportunity to grow.

Cons

Workers are treated like machines. Worker loyalty and dedicated service are not valued. Work-life balance is 90% work. Senior leadership are not held accountable for their actions.

Advice to Senior Management

The damage done to the company over the last few years by firing the people that built the company will take a long time to undo. No time like the present to start.
Fewer Vice Presidents, and more resources at the individual contributor level.
