Pros

- Great, intelligent people to work with - Decent work-life balance (nice to have gym on campus, etc.) - The company feels "young", which is nice for new graduates

Cons

- Low pay (we shouldn't have to rely on a stakeholder bonus to get a halfway decent salary) - Management is in general pretty awful - Too much emphasis on procedures and bureaucracy - Difficult to get promoted (not based on merit- my manager even told me I just haven't been here long enough)

Pros

Great entry level position for engineering majors fresh out of school. You learn a lot about MATLAB/Simulink in this role. Also gain experience with debugging issues and working with customers. Most of your co-workers in Engineering Development Group are also fresh out of college, so there is a strong sense of camaraderie and teamwork, as well as opportunities for socialization and forming friendships. Also, the salary and benefits are quite good (for an entry-level position).

Cons

Some (not all) of the Managers tend to get on your case about trivial matters. Also, the management style in the Engineering Development Group (EDG) is very autocratic. Thankfully, this is not true about the company as a whole, just the EDG Department specifically. While the salary/benefits are good by entry-level standards, they are not so great for people with years of work experience.

Pros

Good name in the industry, Good compensation, Motivation to move out from EDG. Smart peers

Cons

Management in EDG doesn't care about ASE's career development or learning. All they want to do is save their a** and look good in front of higher management. The program is portrayed as one which gives flexibility and freedom to pursue your interests but that is rarely the case. Managers start thrusting some stupid timelines and documents on you and will keep wanting you to do more of Technical Support in the name of "Leadership Qualities".
