Pros

If you are a young engineer who is okay with spending the first 5 years of your career working your butt off with your head down and your mouth closed this is a great company for you. Also, if you are a white male you will love it here. Everything here is designed and set up for your success. Everyone else will struggle to progress and grow.

Cons

The insurance benefits are horrible for new employees. All they offer is a HSA program that doesn't cover hardly anything. I had my annual checkup recently and did the blood work that my doctor recommends every year. The bill for this with TI's HSA program was over $600. I am thankful that i am healthy and do not have any health concerns. There is no way I can afford to have any health issues if my annual checkup and blood work cost that much.

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)
