Don't work there unless you have to

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Access to advanced technology and markets.

Cons

They haven't bothered to integrate from NXP/Freescale merger and are waiting for Qualcomm to save them, so very challenging place to work. Many good employees have left. Upper management stifles creative thinking. Employees who are left are afraid of being RIF'ed so they do as they are told. Morale is very low.

Business Outlook

Pros

In the Netherlands, there are not many ASIC design companies.

Cons

NXP knows that, and many NXP employees, although unhappy with a whole range of policies (such that 30 percent of the people in any group need to get a negative appraisal at the end of any given year "forced distribution" / all the bonus money goes to the higher grades / poort office and poor IT environment / many projects start late have few people and early deadlines ) have nowhere else to go and stay
