What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Setting the tone by examlle
TI executives are mostly homegrown. Anyone with new ideas will not be successful here. The best executives had to leave the company and move on to others companies. It's a stifling environment
Being proactive instead of reactive.
Seeking and listening to feedback from the workers.
TI's leadership team consistently over commits due to their lack of understand of the companies resources, and what is require to safely & correctly accomplish a task. As a result, company overworks its employees leading to a high turnover rate, and lose of talent.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Recognize record high inflation! Cheap labor cannot survive.
Review from IT Dept
Pay is not as competitive as other IT companies and evaluation needs improvements
IT skills are largely underrated, as many have been replaced by contractors. Stock option compensation is almost non-existent.
Better compensation to those who reach productivity goals
Stock options or better outside
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
People just don't show a basic level of respect for other people's brains and time way too often. People shift to blame immediately (in part due to incentive structures that are set up) and are self-protective instead of solutions-oriented.
Poor leadership so expectations from co workers should be met with an asterisk.
Colleagues are very knowledgeable but the no of meetings are way too high
They need to care. It takes days here to do what other it takes hours to do at other companies. TI needs to send people to training. All vendors offer it. The money spent is returned in faster higher quality repairs.
Review from Engineering Dept
Teamwork is generally effective but most teams are probably a bit understaffed for the product they are producing.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?
how employees are treated by management and help would be nice every once in awhile.
The workplace needs to be more inclusive
Employees need to be able to take time off. Employees are so overworked the goal is to keep head down throughout the day to not get even more work throw in their direction, which sometimes results in less teamwork, and participation in meetings. No good deed goes unpunished at TI.
Better pay for new hires having to work 12 hours a day
Set reasonable expectations. Working weekends should not be the norm.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
More organized and with people that actually care about what they are doing
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
If changes are not made in the next 5 years, TI will not have a workforce or knowledge base to function due to high turnover rate, and large age gap in workforce.
Better work-life balance, less politics, clear strategic vision that includes investing on future technology
