-Middle Management is largely incompetent
- The pay, put simply, is not enough when compared to the market value for the type of work being done on the FAB floor.
- There is a “know the right people” kind of promotion environment present at CREE. Employees don’t have a career path available to them and that de incentivizes work and growth.
- SUPPLIES. CREE very REGULARLY runs out of materials and gowning supplies. I have no idea why it’s so difficult to give people who are willing to work to create your wafers for you the supplies necessary to do so. This is a stupid problem to have and should not still be plaguing a company of this size or revenue.
