Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
What do you like best about the leadership team?
visionary and willing to make changes
I' m a seasoned Exec Assist with 47 years experience. I have worked for many leaders, but my current leader is the absolute best. A good and fair man who does not micromanage and allows you to grow and tap into unexplored areas so you can max. your potential. I never have bad work days. Grateful
They are very appreciated and approachable and kind. The best!
Always provide a clear direction, goals
Positive attitude, respect and open to ideas.
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.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
20% profit sharing & yearly raises
it is fair with respect to market
It is competitive vs other teams and companies
TI pays extremely well, plus annual profit sharing.
They provide the needs of the workers.
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IT skills are largely underrated, as many have been replaced by contractors.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 are some of the best things about your team?
best team to work for
The people the culture the ethics
They are all kind and professional; there for you; helpful.
Efficiency. Integrity and their Loyalty.
Review from IT Dept
My team members are helpful. They are always there in a pinch or when you just need to talk. They are great people who continuously work to build the skills and talents of others on the team.
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 is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
positive culture and environment at your company
The most positive thing about the culture and environment is the willingness to adapt
Happy joy luck and SAFETY
Solving great technical problems amd customer issues
Diversity. We have people from all walks of life working here.
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 did you like most about the interview process?
Interviewers seemed friendly. They showed their true colors after I was hired.
it was fast and easy
Quick and easy. Nice people and it didn't take forever to get an offer.
Types of questions that were asked
I could sense that interviewers were more interested in following my thought process than necessarily in me regurgitating the right answers, which helped alleviate the feeling that I was taking an exam.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
More organized and with people that actually care about what they are doing
What makes you most happy at work?
Some folks are driven by dollars. I do not need credit, awards, etc. I need spirit of cooperation and I get it when I need it.
Flexibility and helping build career
Knowing I am part of the TI corporation
I love what I do and the people I work with
Solving next generation technical problems
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
