Good place if you want to be a passive cog in the machinery. Expect resistance if you want to be a driver cog. - Digital Design Engineer Texas Instruments Employee Review

Pros

Incredible and motivated bunch of co-workers Good amenities on campus. Some projects and technology you get to work on can be quite fascinating

Cons

Pay can be a tad to significantly lower than software development jobs Engineers are relegated to being cogs in the machinery, seldom allowed a high level view of the project. Management thinks they know what's best. Don't leverage the wisdom of the incredibly smart people they've got working there.

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)
