Vantaggi

Base salary is still reasonably pegged to market. Local colleagues are helpful.

Svantaggi

Micromanagement here is insane. The senior management (and I mean C suite level) somehow has insane amount of time that warrants their involvement in the most minor of approvals. And we can be talking about having a C suite person approve something that is routine and costs like $50 a year. Not to mention every document/email/slide presentation requires their scrutiny. - HR here are just messengers. Rules relating to anything that benefits employees such as pay, bonus, increment etc. will happily be changed anytime. I know of Q4 2025 new hires who joined with the commitment that they will be eligible for annual pay review next year and it was even in the handbook only for this to change just last week (in DECEMBER no less) that Oops sorry to be you because we need to "raise the bar". (!!!????) - Technicians here are seen by management as dispensable. - There is this very obvious cultural disparity between those who hails from HQ region and locally. The latter are seen as lesser beings who are merely wasting company resources and should be squeezed more.

Vantaggi

ASM is not for everyone. And I do not mean it in either positive or negative way. It is just the way it is. We believe in the semiconductor business outlook fueled by AI demand. We believe in keeping the talent density to drive progress. We believe in hard work and at times you have to go above and beyond. We believe in excellence. And we are fanatic about it. And this is what I have seen during my long tenure here. I have seen great progress where ASM breaks through silos and as one cohesive team working together to deliver for our customers. And this progress will not happen with small and incremental changes. It requires bold transformation driven by our C-level leaders. And with every transformation there are challenges and there are opportunities, there are supporters and there are those who would like to keep status quo. I have seen great opportunities given to people who believe in our cause and deserve it. I am not saying that we did all the right things. I believe we made many good decisions, and we did make mistakes as a human does. But without change there is no progress and without progress there is no success. And we respect those who decides to join and stay with us in this transformation journey as we respect those who decide that this is not their usual cup of tea and withdraw. This is us. This is ASM as I know it. And I am enjoying every single bit of it.

Svantaggi

For sure there are things to improve.
