    Burnout, stress, no planning, poor implementation, and not ready for new technology

    Good opportunity too development career in manufacturing industry
    The good thingsThere are in-house training provided for employee to participate for free
    The challenges12-hours shift which will be quite troublesome for people with family. But it's only for non-executives. Other challenge is too fully and deeply understand the processes involved in manufacturing one solar cell.

    Senior INT Yield Engineer
    Mar 2018
    7 to 8 years in the role, current employee
    Working as Yield Engineer and involve more on data analysis for problem solving.
    The good thingsThis solar company expose more on solar manufacturing industry to make solar cell before export to other countries to build solar panel. Other than that, the solar manufacturing involve multiple steps like etching process, thermal and chemical process as well. My jobs is to ensure yield is running meet target and reduce any yield loss in production line.
    The challengesThis company is not fully auto run production but it running semi auto process which means involve 22 step process need to go through to build up solar cell. Other than that, the control of particle environment in clean room also can be main factor to ensure the step process is running fine without having any issue related to particle issue.
