Pros

The medical and dental benefit plans are great. It is a good company for someone who wants to work for a government agency. Globalfoundries is a subsidiary of the UAE government. You should understand that before you join.

Cons

Globalfoundries lost more talented engineers and managers than most companies ever had. It drew them in by selling them on the idea of a technology company. After people join, they realize the company is part of the UAE government. If you join expecting accountability to profit targets and product launch dates, you will be disappointed. It is run by politics, not by business metrics.

Pros

Great team in Burlington. Diverse technology portfolio provides endless opportunity to learn.

Cons

Non-revenue support groups have small budgets and are seen as cost-burdens. Raises and promotions are behind the industry.
