"This is a multinational company with headquarters moved to Singapore in 2008. There are two branch offices in the US. They are in PA and CA. The two branch offices are mainly engineering R&D and application teams. Majority of the positions are in Singapore. The company had a number of acquisitions before but over 90% were failed. They either shut down the acquired company or lay off the majority of the acquired personnel. The company manages high volume products very good but does not do well in niche markets such that most of the acquired companies were shut down and failed even though they were very successful before the acquisition."
