Business analyst
good networking opportunities throughout the org!
none that I can think of
Engineer
Good work life balance, progressive career growth.
Salary not much. Need more time to get promotion.
Senior software engineer
Good Work life balance Good bonus
No long term plans for new projects. Major concentration is on HDD, which makes other products and projects more susceptible to closure.
Engineering assistant
Easy life. No stress. Not much work to do .
Too many foreigners. Increment every year below $100. Not worth.
Staff engineer
Good benefits, good coworkers, average to above average managers
Terrible executive team, poorly managed at high level, salary cuts, constant layoffs every 3-6 months, no raises, poor transparency about business decisions
Sr software engineer
Good work culture and employee friendly.
Not as of now to mention
Staff analyst
Work Life Balance, Flexible timings
Less Hikes, Old Tech Stack
Technician
Freedom kind flexible ok can
Benefit not much friendly good
Engineering specialist
Retirement job. Very easy to pick up. No learning curve. When there's OT, gross pay is good. Good benefits
Basic is low, OT isn't consistent
Anonymous employee
Good company to work at, a better work life balance, but again it depends from team to team.
Better to go at seagate when you have your retirement planed out, as once you joined this org, you'll get comfortable. So don't opt for it if you are looking for MAJOR growth.
Director of engineering
Great colleagues. High tech work.
Constant retrenchments. Lack of growth
Senior staff engineer
work life balance, good location
limited growth, location location location
Senior analyst
Very good good environment good technology
Not many to add on this
Senior engineer
People are well, good atmosphere to work in.
Poor management, There is big different in different groups some managers are more responsible than others. High up managers are disappointing
Great company to work for with the opportunity to grow
Like every other company, it has its politics
Product engineer
Good benefits : Decent salary, healthcare, free gym and parking Supportive DEI
The company pension could be better.
Ingenieur
Good people to work with
Quite hard time these days
- Culture is chill, despite fast paced environment - Colleagues are super friendly - Shift work is manageable as its fixed - Great location to get lunch outside of company premises
- Pay is lower than market rate - Promotion is dependent on direct superior, some work for more than 10 years still not promoted despite consistent work - Highly volatile job security, as dependent on orders - Bare minimum food quality provided at canteen
Software engineer
Loved the team I worked on.
Upper management is a pain. CEO is a mess.
Hr assistant
Work life balance No stress Good environment and near food courts
narrow down your job scopes not easy to be promoted especially when you re in customer service team less benefit (if you expect high benefit can skip here)
work from home most of the week young and good env working on a intresting & coplex product
small office no gym we dont get a discount on hdds
Emea lead
Brilliant company and great leadership team in the GMO
None significant that should deter from joining
Work is fun when there aren’t layoffs
Layoffs and management make stuff stressful
Buyer
Trust in employees to exceed expectations while promoting a healthy flexible work life balance.
Outsourced all US purchasing positions to Thailand.
Manager, supplier quality assurance
Very friendly work culture and very good work balance life .
Seagate Singapore operation for HDD business is moving out from Singapore
Good projects and always potential to expand.
Too much politics, while it is possible to expand , promotions ar won’t happening often
Senior project manager
Sometimes it was good. Staff tried to do their best.
Unrealistic expectations, unresponsive and unhelpful management. Too much politics and top-heavy
Process development engineer
Lots of amazing projects to work on No time clock
Mass Lay off Slow promotions
Research and development intern
Flexible, interesting, friendly, challenging and fun.
Somewhat repetitive, given menial jobs and the area is not good to live in
Firmware engineer
it's a flexible environment. The workload is not that heavy.
It's hard to transfer to another company.
Senior firmware engineer
work life balance good for retirement nice old employees
frequent layoff every quarter not a place to pursuit for your career cut off all projects and focus on minimal products
Senior qa engineer
Very nice work life balance company, manager is nice, environment is very great as well. Company has gym, game room and multi purpose hall.
Not much food to choose nearby.
Friendly and welcoming work environment; Nice people to work with; Advanced systems; Work-life balance
Industry competition; Company business is in a downturn and as a result upper management laid off large number of employees to compensate for that; Also limited career growth
Program manager
Company has some leading technology. They are friendly to work with; with fewer politics than a lot of organizations
Company is trying to move the organization to the 23's vs the 95's
Stable company in an industry with few players
Compensation and benefits are not the best
Great technology, good benefits, will get good training opportunities if you are close with your manager
Researchers are managers, so don't know how to manage teams. No clear understanding of what is needed from the resources. Frequent layoffs. Dominated by a particular clan and won't see anyone included from that clan during layoffs.
Senior staff firmware engineer
None anymore (after 2020). Seriously, nothing.
Constant layoffs due to declining revenues and preference to give share dividends instead of rewarding the employees.
Analyst
The people are smart and great to work wirh
Strategy is dependent on economic conditions which can be unpredictable
Good ESPP & recent share price results
always looking to save $ & never over invest in marketing
peaceful and good and laid back
slow and not much growth
Understanding manager but depends on department
Low pay as compared to other companies
Work life balance if you know your craft well.
Hard to get promoted if your boss's boss do not like your team.
Firmware engineering manager
Many smart and intelligent people in one place. Good work and life balance.
Nothing out of the ordinary. A small part of management team need people skills training.
Machine operator

sometime need to work on public holiday but its doest matter..
Data analyst intern
Good work-life balance and good cultural environment.
Average pay. The projects were not very interesting.

Temporary or contract workers may face uncertainty during low production seasons. 3. Moderate Salary Levels Entry-level salaries may not be as high as in tech companies located in Bangkok or in fintech/startups.
