Texas Instruments Product Engineer reviews

Good old boy network. It is not what you know, but who knows you makes big difference as to how one can excel in the company

Very difficult to keep some one who wants to advance in their career or rotate job functions to understand the company better. While the tech ladder is there to promote people who are individial contributors there is no clear career path for people who want to transition to the management ladder. It is mostly based on an old-boys network or who you worked with in groups before. No training program for new hires. It is difficult to motivate people who want to contribute more . Not many women in management roles across all groups in TI. Career growth for women is as good as who your manager is ( which is a risky proposition) and how supportive they are. There is always a concern that women may not make the tough decisions as good as men.
