Texas Instruments reviews about "layoff"

Company had massive layoff at this site and it felt like it was understaffed before that happened. New college grads are preferred over employees with experience. Frequent night and weekend escalations.

Most of the great leaders from the IM Flash/Micron days are now gone, others have been laid off. With the newer leadership, there has been a big decline in the focus on developing people. Our previous leaders used to develop employees and promotions were very common back then. My boss knows nothing about me or my professional goals. Recognition has also been non-existant since TI took over the factory. They literally have no recognition system that I know of. No room for growth, especially after layoffs earlier this year. We keep losing people, but they only seem to hire egineering interns. We're expected to perform the work we used to do with a fully staffed team of 12 people with 4-5.

No resources Techs really have the bad end of this Layoffs to make sure we hit metrics

Overseas teams mean you work weird hours and have meetings after the end of typical working hours. Profit sharing is how the company gets away with underpaying their employees and avoiding higher salary raises. Quarterly layoffs this year helped the company lose some of its most experienced engineers which led to overwhelming the unexperienced engineers and low morale. Not much room for growth unless you want to pivot to a different role or become a manager. Some teams really embrace the Silicon Valley mentality of "if you don't lose sleep over your job, you're not working hard enough" and it leads to high turnover rates on these teams.

Most are having to do the job of 2 or even 3. Poor benefits. Constant layoffs under the new regime, morale is low. Micro-management. Not innovative, just cost focused. Archaic RTW policy.

boring work, little to no real innovation willing acceptance of mediocrity up to the highest levels of the company high workload due to constant small layoffs, constantly understaffed fabs end up being run by 2 dozen folks, the rest are constantly turning over for new college grads who eventually leave within 5 years for better jobs.

TI does not have a lot to offer with lower than average pay for the area, and very high turnover due to overworked, understaffed teams. Both management and so-called leadership are incompetent and exist only to boost their ego of being at the same company for over a decade. Even leadership likes to jump ship (to lead yet another TI group who mysteriously also had an opening) after wrecking existing roles and responsibilities. Poor planning and failed executions led to the blame game which is why employees suddenly got walked out the door during an unannounced layoff, Fall 2024. Bonus points: the CFO is not shy and will shoulder check you to get out of a crowd rather than a simple "excuse me."The same individual announced 5 days in office due to "poor financial performance," when in reality, demand went down because we are no longer in a chip shortage.

Company is not transparent. Told new priorities everyday that differ from the last. No flexibility for WFH. Mass layoff Mar. 2025 ~20% at Lehi site. Told to do more with less. If you do not have an engineering specific degree you will never qualify for an engineering role
