American engineers resigning en masse from Chinese semiconductor industry
- markus_zhang 4y agoDo we have data? It's just a few days and everyone is already gone?
- raydiatian 4y agoI mean how many engineers/execs is that actually? You’re telling me that the whole Chinese semiconductor industry is propped up by US-citizens?
- wmf 4y agoIf it's true it's a real failure of mentorship. They should have trained native talent by now. But I am reminded of a "Chinese" chip company whose R&D was mostly done in Austin by ex-IBMers.
- rdtwo 4y agoFirst rule of contacting is never teach anyone anything. I see our contractors follow it religiously. Rule number 2 is to work lots of OT to extract maximum profit.
- booi 4y agoUnethical life pro tip?
- rdtwo 4y agoIdk seems more the rule then some weird outlier. There is a general expectation for contractors to grind out tasks or be let go, no reward for teaching
- markus_zhang 4y agoThey are contractors after all and not expected to be team lead.
- paulryanrogers 4y agoIt reads like satire. As if to say "there aren't really that many anyway, so this isn't a big deal"
- stjohnswarts 4y agoI would rather read stats (even approximations) of how many Americans it actually affects there and how much manufacturing. It seems pretty underwhelming so far outside of some very hyped up titles I've seen from Twittericles
