very limited and narrow domain. If one works here for say 10 yrs.. you have to work for life. there're no real alternatives.. and one cannot survive anywhere else.

Advice to Senior Management

Very good decisions at the top level in the past one year. Continue with the same momentum

Pros

Good (and a lot of) technical work of good quality,as cmompared to similar companies in Singapore in the same industry.

Cons

Bad management, Poor salary compared to industry, Slow response in decision making, No room to grow. "we-do-not-care" and top-to-bottom style of management.

Advice to Senior Management

If there were enough opportunities in the same field in Singapore, Infineon would be hard pressed to find employees with current standards of management and salaries.

Pros

Large company, reasonable benefit package, large set of product in the market, opportunity to find out about rest of the world!

Cons

In my case, my direct manager was a very competent and good guy but the higher management were totally opposite.

Pros

High tech systems and improving production flow every month.

Cons

Sometimes the managers are over loaded on projects.

Pros

Good technology, good market in Germany, engineers given a lot of respect, reasonable salary, very nice facility, marketing team was good

Cons

It was the year of a bad economy, a lot of cutbacks and departments closures. The location was a small part of the company and hence not considered very important

Advice to Senior Management

Expand this location since space is available (lot of empty cubicles), focus increasing revenues, margins will be made up during a good economy

Pros

Good technology nodes, precision engineering from Germans and good innovation.

Cons

No recognition, few people clog the system, people respond only to a situation no proactiveness.

Advice to Senior Management

Management need to have control on sub-ordinates.
