PMC-Sierra is only eight years old, so it is difficult to say exactly how long people will stay. After a period of time at PMC-Sierra, staff may wish to explore opportunities at our various locations worldwide. Whether it be a lifestyle choice or for professional development reasons, staff have temporary and permanent transfer opportunities during their employment with the company. The intention is to provide company time for people to meet others, socialize, and find out what they are doing. It is a great way for people to learn about the company, our industry, and what's going on at other locations.
Some folks see it as an ongoing extension of our Orientation program.
Most companies speak only to the pluses of working for a company. The growth brings with it much change, so you need to thrive on change, challenge, and speed of change in order to fit well within our environment. However, we have a much smaller workforce than our nearest rivals. We, as a workforce, have been able to create a lot of value. We see our key assets are people.
