Pros

TE has business units reporting to segments which report to corporate. Each business unit has its own personality. Benefits are generally competitive. Experiences can be rich and opportunities can be found for top performers. Café and gym on campus are good. And there is philanthropic piece to this company as well. Corporate and Redwood City based jobs have a bit more stability.

Cons

The company is basically headquartered on the East Coast. My BU had a major presence in Asia. Work life balance is tough. You can start the day at 5 am and end your day at 9, 10, or 11 pm in order to work with both groups. It has been announced that the Menlo campus has been sold.

Pros

Broadly a good company if you’re in a senior decision making role.

Cons

HR policies are words only. Years go by without ability to take any PTO and carry over not allowed. Friday afternoons, all HR US employees stop working with all others working past normal business hours and into the weekend including late Friday asks to complete an action by Monday 8:00 AM that was known earlier in the week but only communicated to the employee after Friday business hours. Every Friday. Onboarding structure / sink or swim approach, no training. No sense of belonging unless you’ve worked here 20 years plus. No growth or development opportunities unless tapped on the shoulder. Many openings are never published, again tapped on the shoulder approach despite offering to volunteer. Dismissive company culture. Every Voice Counts initiative is code for: if you do share your voice, you are on a list to not consider for promotion or any projects that would give you more visibility across the organization to foster one’s growth.
