Freescale Semiconductor Employer Reviews

12 hour days were a little rough.Management was ok. Co-workers were fun. Most enjoyable part of job was making production numbers.

Employed with company for 19 years working in many positions and departments. Positions required interaction with comprehensive employee and management levels employed at plant locations in Europe, Asia and South America.

Lots of old management principles in play. Good work / life balance but company does not seem to be going anywhere.

* Moving WIP, and qualifying tools, learning alot about the tools. There is a lot of work to be done daily.
* Management is very informative, teaching about the management system that helps productivity, and smooth operating proceedures.
* The co-workers are good team players, and good friends. I've found the company to have a feel of family among the – more... whole company.
* There is still a lot to learn. I am enjoying the challenge. – less

customer is very cooperative and give you the requirements very clearly.

hated working there management was not equal on rating employees jobs. all base on who you knew

Great company rich in talent and history. Remnants of old culture still plaguing the place. Constant change in leadership unsettling to employees.

FSL offers some of the best people in the industry, however thier constant cycle of layoffs has given them a bum rep!
Politics never seem to change, management on group by group basis.
Broad spectrum of oppoutunities with wide product portfolio.

It was okay for what they expected from you. Very easy to work no challenge.

Fantastic 15 years of my career where i was able to develop in several management roles and grow the team

Manually loaded and unloaded product into tools, kept track of inventory and prioritize work using computers, and I maintained quality control in a fast-paced clean room environment. Here I learned about keeping up with communication not only in computers inputting info on processes, but with co-workers ( witched changed daily). Communication was vital – more... concerning the quality/production of product of time-sensitive processes, and having to deal with different personalities. It was a challenge at times, but having an open mind and communication skills made it a productive day. I was recognized by management for being both quality and quantity oriented. The hardest part of the job was when tools came down and production wasn't going anywhere, and I liked that at the end of the day was a good day. – less

it was a pleasure working at freescale. very challenging but awesome. bosses are great. cant think of one negative remark.

Started my carrier among the best DFT peeple of the world. Got global exposure in DFT. Worked in various Global projects and get to know different working styles and methodologies. the Hardest and the most fun part was to solve silicon issues.

a pleasure to work at Freescale semiconductor. If one is looking for challenging technical work, Freescale is for you.

I like the poeple I work with but the floor is metal and not very easy to walk on for a 12 hour shift. My co-workers are ready to help each other when needed. maagement sometime forgets that we can not hit our numbers when we have no work but when you need help they are willing to help out.

The bay I was in when I started was run by foreign operators/trainers who were hard to understand, lacked people skills and used intimidation and degrading behavior as part of their training.
The leads and supervisors could care less about any work issues you might have.
I am still employed here and the most enjoyable part of the day is still leaving – more... the job site at the end of the shift. – less

Very productive work place and very customer focus, longer hours as needed, it not required but it expected, constantly learning. Team work oriented.
Successfully support the needs of customer.

was given alot of responsibility and control of my tools and made the day stay busy.

Great Company,But Management lacks People skills.
i was Certfied on 57% of thier tool set in my 2+ yrs i was there.I most likely would never work for them again unless they restructure. There Management or leadership In chandler Az.People are not happy and employees get no support from UpperManagment. When Employees do a great job they Dont even get – more... a ( good job )from Management.
Most employee are just bitter and have givven up on Freescale. I believe if the Employee is happy the company's profit go up ...... Mr. LOWE(CEO) please consider being an Undercover BOSS ... Freescale could use an Audit from an Ind.Company to asset the damage management has done at FREESCALE INC ( Chandler AZ ) site – less
