Working at Maxim Integrated Products in San Jose, CA: 11 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in San Jose, CA Area

"This company is toxic. You are expected to work as 3 employees and are driven by fear that if you don’t keep up, it’s your fault and there is no need for you. Rather than management stepping in to set you up for success and making sure you are enabled to do your job well with a level of personal satisfaction, they just work days/nights/weekends/during pto and expect you to do the same and just keep pushing you to get the next thing done. Additionally, the culture is quick to reduce/minimize your achievements while highlighting your flaws to justify minimal raises and career progression."

"Good company to work for. I love to work here"

"The people are great and the compensation is competitive. However, trying to get clear path for promotion was very hard. Took 3 years for the company to present in writing. Seems like top-level positions are hired in more than internally grown."

"Nice working environment."

"Good company. It's very engineer focused.They don't give much consideration to other departments. The company definitely values community and it's very easy to move up. The pay is designed to be the median average. So you will make alright money."

"Great company to work at, very smart and easy-to-get-behind CEO in Tunc. Fairly relaxed atmosphere with very knowledgeable and responsive colleagues who work well together. Great benefits, stock options, 401k matching, etc. Very safe bet of a company in the sense that little risks are taken, revenue is very forecastable, people like the products, but not as exciting as some other companies."

"It is ok to work here."

"I did my internship in Maxim Integrated last summer and with all the help form my co-workers I learned a lot of skills and helped me better understand basic theories and practical designing methods."

"I worked for Maxim Integrated for over 7 years, it was a great place to acquire great work ethics and discipline. I've contributed myself by showing Maxim my showcase of software and hardware development in conjunction with on time assignment delivery, ensuring my part of the project gets satisfied to the company's satisfaction."

"Company has been in a state of reorganization for the two years I was with Maxim. There is still no clear decision made by executive management regarding its distribution channel strategy and direction which resulted in the recent elimination of my position."
