White boy's club, struggling to survive

Pros

Awesome people, particularly below Director level. Competitive benefits including 401k match and commuter program. Facilities and offices well designed, well maintained

Cons

If you are female or non-white, you will not advance past middle engineering or management levels. Company is struggling to be profitable and truly integrate after purchase of Silicon Image - so bonus and raise don't exist. Worst, they tolerate some truly awful managers - people are fleeing in droves right now

Thank you for your feedback, for recognizing the robust and competitive benefits program Lattice offers, and its great people. Lattice’s history is one of success and resilience. We have just completed the integration of Silicon Image and are planning for continued success in 2016. As with many high tech companies Lattice strives for diversity of its entire team including our leadership team. In the last three years we have filled some of our most pivotal roles with female leaders. Our training initiatives are preparing our team members to take the next steps in their career and leadership development. This year we launched a Community Group targeted towards Women’s Leadership at all of our major sites globally to focus on leadership and professional development. Lattice is also proud that several of our senior leadership roles are held by individuals of diverse ethnic backgrounds, which has been a key value we bring to our global business. Our management teams are working to promote diversity and a great working environment for all employees and will continue to strive to close gaps that are prominent in our industry. Initiatives such as these show Lattice is continuing to trend below benchmarks globally on undesired terminations. As with all Lattice employees, we want you to continue to grow in your career and have a career development path. We encourage you to speak to your leadership team or HRBP regarding the opportunities you are seeking or would like to explore so that we may work together to resolve them.

Life at Lattice

Business outlook

Pros

For the most part, the people who work there are great to be around and I consider friends. The product line is interesting and the company has the potential to be great.

Cons

Management is a revolving door. Silos are common. Favoritism runs rampant. Unlimited PTO only if a favorite. No appreciation for accomplishments with focus only on faults. Lack of support on virtually every level. Management is difficult to trust and adds little value. Fear of layoffs is a constant concern for everyone. The overall vibe is one of depression.

Pros

+ executives striving to refocus Lattice on programmable ASSPs but lack the ability to pull in the talent and capital required to pull it off + subsidized public transportation, employees can nominate each other for $25 to $100 gift cards, 1 personal day-off + 2 volunteer days, taxable giveaways

Cons

- executive cronyism and 3rd place in a stagnant industry helps ensure mediocrity against a line-up of tough, battle-hardened, savvy competitors - no growth means no merit increases, no promotions, no 401k matching, no career growth, no talent, no sustained competitive advantage - outdated and uninspired tools, methods, practices, and ideas

We appreciate you sharing your experience. Transparency is a key element of our culture and we promote like thinking. It’s great to hear that you’re enjoying several of our workplace perks such as subsidized transportation and rewards. While we re-engineered our 401k program, we are excited to announce that we have brought back 401k match as part of our total compensation program and continue to offer stock equity, merit increases and promotions as part of performance management. We pay competitive rates and strive to create an environment where team members are recognized and rewarded for their performance. Lattice has been making deliberate investments to improve our processes, tools and procedures and constantly are looking at ways to be innovative.
