You mean TF-AMD don't have R&D ? Why got posting position with product development ? Thx

They're a OSAT company, meaning companies like AMD outsource their chipsets to TF-AMD for assembly & testing. Thus TF-AMD don't develop their own products.

Btw, you posted at wrong forum lah, better go to Jobs& Careers section for better answers.

No wonder these factories need to have security check when exiting the factory floor/labs.

In US, everything is honor system, no checks and you can do whatever you want with the chips.

i think the benefits should be quite same with other factories.
What i know from my friend:
1. food subsidy 1 day rm5
2. increment not bad as my friend get >10% continuously for 2 years.
3. turnover rate quite high
*
>10% yearly increments quite good. most of my kolik who work at manufacturing factory told me normally increment is just ±5% only

Working in companies like Intel and AMD, you need brains and politics.

The politics is way too heavy.

If you dont perform, you are out.
If you perform very well and become a threat to your immediate superior, you will be played out.
If you perform so well and the superior of your superior (say regional in charge) likes you and weed him out, you will thrive at first and soon be a threat to him and he will still play you out.

My dad was already very high up in Intel, the whole intel International only got 4 in charge of this department (cannot name) - that time these 4 are in Portland, Oregon - Santa Clara, California - Shanghai - and Penang

2014 or 2015 USA economy was bad, retrench all high rankers.
Dad got played out by his superior, his superior after one year got played out by his own superior who directly ans to the CEO.

That moment forced him to move to KL.

That was a cold blooded moment bec dad served 20+ years in Intel. VSS and out you go. and before that, they ask my dad perform training for all the freshies like all these new /ktard strawberries. 1 to train batches of 200, cut the 1, and replace with the 200 low salary people.

No doubt,
Job salary is good
Annual increment and bonus and u get some shares
Get to fly internationally for meetings and cuti cuti with family at same time
Got allowances

But dont expect it to last very long, my friends who worked in Intel got shown the door quite fast, usually within 5 years.

The key is to keep your immediate superior looking good.. Give him all the contracts, give him your full support. Keep him on your side and you and your boss together will quickly rise up the ranks.

But again, the second point is real and more difficult to clear.. You can't stop the freshies coming in and you being replaced eventually.. It happens.

The best is to just keep saving your money, and eventually get out by the time you hit your 40s.. VSS after 20 years of service should actually be seen as a good windfall payment.

starting a business even if part-time is also a good idea whilst you are in your 30s.

20months VSS not bad weh. Why didn't jump to broadcom and continue the money printing?

My friend got 15 months VSS in 2015, joined another company in Penang and has been promoted 3 times since then, now director level already.

What I knew is same with what he mentioned where some china company buy its manufacturing line and created this TF-AMD.
AMD will outsource some of the test & assembly to TFAMD which is in part of the contract where they bought it.
Technically, TF-AMD is not part of AMD so they will have totally different benefits.
Do they got a RnD team in TF-AMD? I mean RnD in what area?
