Pros

The technology with which one works is absolutely fascinating and unique. And you will be working with colleagues from many different backgrounds.

Cons

ASML frequently shows itself to have outgrown its systems and governance. I can't speak for other departments, as manufacturing seems mostly divorced from everything else, but in the factories your work and, even more, career is constantly haunted by bosses and systems from when this was a "relatively obscure dutch company" and haven't kept up with the fact this is now, supposedly, a modern company. As a senior colleague frequently says: "We work in the largest backyard company in the world."

Pros

Location is good and near freeway, they make a crucial technology for the world to function

Cons

Toxic environment. Selective enforcement, antisemitic DEI culture, tattle tale rat snitch employees, managers play favorites, managers move the goal post after you were supposed to earn a salary increase. too many foreigners in management and not enough americans. DEI is a joke and is run by a racist black women. Company will burn you and punish you for problems someoen else created and punish you for it despite no power to fix the issue yourself.
