      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Applied has the best semiconductor tools in the world, and this is very useful for solar cell development. Other than this, Applied has very good technical support to do characterization for material and device.

      Cons

      Collaboration between product management and product development need to be improved. Solar is a kind of new business for applied. Applied need to find a good point to get into the game.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Very flexible atmosphere where the employee is empowered to make decisions and be self sufficient. Strong training resources available and good mentorship programs.

      Cons

      There are some large bureaucracies within the company and some actions take an extremely long time to get accomplished. They could do a better job in communicating some employee senstive messages.
