Business Outlook

Pros

The Application Engineer position is certainly a challenging role, but it effectively accelerates one's growth into a systems engineer.

Cons

With TI removing the distributors, and with their FAEs have naturally taken on more sales-oriented responsibilities. Given that TI also has dedicated validation teams, the AE role appears to be evolving to fill a crucial gap, becoming more specialized and functioning like a product-focused FAE.

Business Outlook

Pros

Starting as a new college Grad at TI is very difficult but after time and with right management expectation role becomes easier WFH and very few meetings outside normal work hours

Cons

Pay increase is manager dependent and there is no consistent stance on when a employee should receive significant increase in salary and job grade (Very manager opinion dependent)

Business Outlook

Pros

Interesting work, good pay. Good opportunity for advancement. Reasonable work life balance.

Cons

Different groups act very independently. Some groups are not managed well. Engineers that are struggling in one group should consider switching rather than going to another company. The size of the company sometimes creates bureaucracy that can make it hard to achieve some goals.
