Constructive Feedback From TSMC Employees
- What needs to change to make the company culture better?Please streamline the processes, listen to your senior hires that are trying to coordinate everything for you, and take care of your people. We have literal subject experts with 15-20+ years experience getting blocked on their reccommendations because it isnt "believed" they are right.
- What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?TSMC needs to understand that we're limited by personnel counts. If you require us to do multiple urgent assignments that must be done within the hour, and you dont give us enough people to do it, but ALSO we are not allowed to work alone to divide and conquer, then we are limited by personnel count
- What's going wrong and how can it be improved?Work is constantly being humiliated
