Pros

OK compensation if you are not a designer. I am an EE, but was not a designer. TI tends to fix problems promptly in comparison to other companies where I have worked. Their Ethics department is not a sham. I had to use it once in the 8 years I was there and there was no retaliation, but the problem was brought to top management.

Cons

There was a regular lay-off train. At one point a manager friend of mine there said she had laid off all the "bottom 10%" and they told her to choose another (two successive layoffs.) She said everyone there was top-notch. The told her to find the one who was bottom 10% of the talent in her group anyway. TI laid off some really good people while some bad ones stayed.

Pros

Great learning opportunity, would recommend to new college grads Above average pay for the industry Very friendly colleagues who want to transfer knowledge WLB is team dependent

Cons

Team has reduced to 1/3 of original size in less than 2 years, but BU is mostly hiring in India Refuses to hire externally in US (only internal reqs) to fill roles lost from attrition, instead management dumps responsibilities on rest of team members (with no pay raise to match) Management refused to address 2025 layoffs, employee morale is very low Limited mobility and (capped) yearly performance bonus Restructured profit sharing to effectively be a pay cut (-7%) Unclear job description, constantly changing priorities, management is out of touch with employees Innovation isn't emphasized, new products are mostly IP re-use Employee burn-out common Definite decline in work culture since 2023 RSU vesting schedule is bad (4 years)
