Svantaggi
More image than substance. Upper management seems more interested in projecting to the world that we are a prestigous and successfull company, than they are actually becoming one....... Not entirely truthfull with employee prospects. Talking a big game about raises, bonuses, and promotions, none which will actually come to fruition.......Too much emphasis on degree over experience. Allowing a college grad that has never seen a microchip make process and policy decisions while ignoring the input of techs that have been successfully processing wafers for most of their lives. You have a lot of 20 - 25 year old grads with 0 experience telling 45 - 50 year old techs with 20 years of experience how to do their jobs........Openly spends way too much money on unnecessary building and superficial facelift upgrades while telling hard working employees there is no money for raises or bonuses which were promised.......They Absolutely manage through fear. Middle management is deathly afraid of facing upper management in meetings(to which there are way to many) when issues arise. Causing a trickle down effect. Middle management in turn takes it out on engineers and techs because of said fear. A lot of blame coming from upper management when in business it is known that upper management usually gets the credit when the business succeeds, and the blame when it fails. The upper management at Global Foundries likes to take credit for success and blame middle management and employees for failures.
