TI is a company that encourages innovation from every level. If you're a technician, an engineer, or a manager, you're expected to continue to look for improvement opportunities for the company.
Rewards are given accordingly, for participating in technical conferences, patent disclosures, company events, etc.
Communication is often very clear from top to bottom. They always keep their employees in the loop for latest news.
I left TIM to look for something better, only to find that it's one of the best company in semiconductor to work for, besides Intel.
Pros
Subsidized lunches, close to public transportation, training provided
