Vantaggi

The pros of this comapany is many Cons :D

Svantaggi

Said will aligned to the industry standards BUT all the benefits provided is way below the average standards. 1) meal allowance only $2 and the food provided is like the cooking oil is on huge discounts ( oily food) and not nice at all. Able to observe most employees only eat 70% of the food and dispose the 30% but HR kind of blind, not able to observe. 2) Medical allowance only able to claim $40 (panel clinic only, non panel pay full by yourself), beyond that, you need to pay your own. 3) salary average is not up to par as other companies and salary adjustment only applicable to fresh grad and new hires. Those working for 1+ years above or graduated more than certain years and just join this field has no adjustment (you shall work till you die), wondering how can retain the employees. 4) give you a bicycle ( desktop) and expect you to ride it like a Lamborghini. The computer provided is only 8gb ram, yet the software required for daily use is beyond that, software crash here and there. That's UMC's mindset of effective and efficient:D 5) report writing is more important than actual work. Expected to spend time to write report to customers and we still need to qual equipment and solve daily management issue. Overall this company is squeezing everything they can get from you by paying minimum wage and giving minimum benefits.

Vantaggi

UMC is a traditional company with a lot of job security. They try very hard to not have to lay off any employees (it's seen as a place where you can work until retirement). Also, given the size of its business (large for a Taiwanese company), it affords a lot of different experiences to its employees. It is seen as prestigious (in Taiwan) and since it has fabs in many different countries, you will have travel experiences as well. Good vacation package and benefits package. Also, there is good work life balance. Finally, there is a good mix of younger and older employees.

Svantaggi

There is a lot of internal politics and bureaucracy. This sometimes makes it quite hard to get the information needed to complete a project or to implement anything cross functional. Also, like many other big companies, promotions can sometimes be more about who know rather than what you know. There is a heavy emphasis on seniority within the company and there are cases where it seems that if you've been around long enough, you will be given management opportunities over someone who is more capable. This creates dissatisfaction among the most valuable junior employees and contributes to higher turnover and attrition.
