schlechtes Management: opiniones de empleados con el puesto de Process Engineering en Dialog Semiconductor

Nice ppl working with, work life balance

Too far from my home

This is specifically for the Campbell office which formerly was the iWatt acquisition. The technical team is very strong, highly respected and dominates decision making(instead of finance or marketing ), so it is good if u are an engineer wanting to do some real technical work. The Campbell office is small people works tightly together and the system and design team talks every hour or so, which is very different from other semiconductor design. Most people are nice and respectful. Pace is fast(consumer products)and engineers are always engaged or u will be quickly neglected and ignored. Collaboration with UK and other sites are there in terms of methodology sharing only so not a whole lot of early morning meetings, but frequently will be late afternoon meetings even on Fridays with Asia team. Dinner provided and free snacks and soda, free bagels Monday. There are volunteer opportunities and team building events, not excessive. Senior management had some creative acquisitions to survive which I considered brilliant, and has a mostly handoff approach to this particular design center.

Seldom allowed to work from home due to the lab nature of most of the work. Pace is intense. Late night email(11pm) exchanges are common especially a few bad apples seem to enjoy that to discuss general technical issues. Not culturally diverse and mostly speak mandarin. Strong sense of inner circle mentality certain alma matters and ex colleagues. Weak compensation, even with good reviews RSU or extra bonus are not common. Very high turnover esp. the younger guys.
