Very technical environment, opportunities to learn new things, company is on the cutting edge in technology and in benefitts. Good work life balance and more than enough vacation days as well.

Highly technical environment creates extreme competitieveness. Also they put so much focus on diversity (which is good) but it's so much that it can marginalize and puts down non-minority employees.

Advice to Senior Management

Good to play up diversity but it should not be the top priority - productivity and ability should be more important.

Texas Instruments is a good learning place. A lot of skilled professionals work here on state of the art technology.

Its a very huge organization and the chances of climbing up the professional ladder are slimmer than being in a start up company.

Good pay,
Good compensation
Good benefits

Friendly people too.

Cons

Not enough training when job rotations are done.

Pros

TI offers so many different opportunities in one place, lots of flexibility to try new roles and take on different challenges. Great colleagues who always want to help, very open discussions. High standard of ethics.

Cons

It's a big company, so things can sometimes move slowly. You need to be persistent to make things happen here. Leaders can sometimes be too customer focused.

Pros

There was a very good motivation from everyone on the team. The works hours were also pretty much flexible. Feedback was provided then and there.

Cons

Sometimes the work might get too demanding, forcing you to stay up late into the night. Other than this, I could not think of any other con .

Advice to Senior Management

I would rate my overall experience as satisfied. Therefore I have any advice or feedback to convey to the management.

Pros

Like Dallas Area. Good employer. Good benefits. Fast paced work environment. Very challenging.

Cons

Promotions are not done purely based performance. Lot of politics involved.

Advice to Senior Management

Dont promote people to make the metrics on diversity. Please promote diverse folks if the performace is equivalent to non-diverse candidates.

Pros

Good pay with OT over 8hrs per day. Benefits are pretty much the same as other places.

Cons

Runs very thin, very stressful. Nights shift only has one technician and common problems do not get fixed because of manpower. Constant battle trying to keep equipment going. You can talk to management about issues, but you won't see anything done. If you are an EET, you won't go any higher in the company unless you get a b.s. degree. All managers are engineers.

Advice to Senior Management

There really needs to be more than one tech per area on shift for safety and to avoid work related injury.
