“Are there any people who can devote themselves to research and development day and night?” An executive at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (TSMC) asked this question to a graduate school professor at a national university in Japan in late August 2024. When the professor tried to confirm the specifics, a TSMC executive gave a clear answer. “Japanese people work less than expected, but it should be different for students who can obtain a doctorate. “We want to actively build a wide range of routes to accept them.”
TSMC opened its first factory in Kikuyo, Kumamoto Prefecture in February 2012. The operating company, JASM, was established with joint investment from Sony Group and DENSO. Construction of the second factory is also scheduled to begin within 2024, with Toyota Motor Corporation also joining in as an investor, aiming for it to be operational at the end of 2027. Both factories will also act as a gateway for gathering talented people from Japan. “We will work hard, even in fire or water, to provide the best possible service for our customers.” TSMC’s research and development is unique, as the words of its founder, Morris Chang, permeate the company. One glimpse of this could be seen in the fierce technology competition that unfolded between 2014 and 2016 with South Korea’s Samsung Electronics and the United States’ Intel.

New graduates?
Mid-career hire?
Part-time?
It all depends on the employer.
And when it comes to whether you work or not,
how do they want you to work?
People need to be nurtured.

The Japanese are just incompetent.

There are a lot of people who are like an extension of their students.

In Japan, there is a lot of unnecessary work, so even people in science don’t spend all their time researching day and night, and there are only a handful of decent people who get a PhD. For better or worse, unfortunately, Japan today does not have the hunger of Asia.
0008Anonymous Donburako.Oct. 11, 2024 (Fri) 18:30:00.45ID:eP7Tb+7×0
It can’t be helped, since Jap’s goal is to get into a good company.

Does the work here involve manually operating equipment and retrieving process parameters?
I don’t really want to do it even if people say it’s lazy lol.

The days of hard working Japanese people are over. Now everyone just wants to make money the easy way.
0014Anonymous Donburako.Oct. 11, 2024 (Fri) 18:32:59.30ID:QlDi6RsS0
Subcontracting here is pretty tough, so even if a PhD gets a job, he’s likely to quit soon after.
0015Anonymous Donburako.Oct. 11, 2024 (Fri) 18:34:00.92ID:lUU8j53T0
Japanese companies: “We don’t want people with PhDs because they’re too much of a pain to deal with, we want slaves who obey orders.”
Global companies: “Japanese people are less competent than we thought, but we’d love to have people with PhDs work for us.”
This is why Japanese companies are falling into decline…

Is it a waste to let the prototype equipment sit overnight, so they take three shifts to work in the clean room? I don’t think a doctor is the right person for the job lol.

It’s not a prototype device.
It’s a mass-produced device like Amat.
It uses BKM.
Who would do something like that under a Taiwanese person?

The Showa era was a time when Japanese people worked extremely hard. Nowadays, there doesn’t seem to be much of a strong desire to succeed at all costs in order to live a good life. You can live a fairly comfortable life even if you’re not that successful.

Japanese companies won’t hire people with social anxiety or developmental disabilities who are so absorbed in research and development lol.

In other countries today, they say you have to work to your death because they’ll pay you. Japan is a step behind and is still talking nonsense about work-life balance. Well, it’s because there are companies that don’t pay you but make you work to your death.
0026Anonymous Donburako.Oct. 11, 2024 (Fri) 18:38:40.95ID:VpoNmXBG0
Apparently in Taiwan, research and development was carried out on a 24-hour basis, so I guess there are a lot of college graduates who don’t like the three-shift system.

This has changed with the work style reform.

TSMC and Samsung. New businesses are stranded in America because of a shortage of 200,000 engineers. Why did you think they would be in Japan? They should stop. This is a job for a developing country with room to grow in the future.

Even now, top trading companies pay salaries of over 10 million yen, but they say the lifespan is short. It’s easier to make money by being anti-Japanese on NHK.
0030Anonymous Donburako.Oct. 11, 2024 (Fri) 18:39:58.23ID:6Tlce3890
TSMC… is it a stable company? No one would want to join a company that closed down in less than 10 years.

Is Taiwan now in the Showa era Japan mode?
Are they running commercials asking things like “Can you work 24 hours a day?”

They are being brought up in the most difficult curriculum ever.

Well, I guess in Japan today, if you live and work the way I do, you can’t stay at the cutting edge. Japanese technology will fall into disuse.

Japanese people in the Showa era brag about working 200 hours of overtime, while Japanese people in the Reiwa era commit suicide after working 80 hours of overtime.

Well, the pay system was such that you could work 200 hours and still get some money back…
The old folks back then were getting their pensions in shambles and making a living.

If you want hardworking people, hire old guys from before the Yutori era, otherwise young people today won’t work.

People other than university professors are rare, so if you need one, you have no choice but to hire a master’s degree and send them to graduate school with company money to train them.
But do factories really need PhDs?
Isn’t development done in Taiwan?
0048Anonymous Donburako.Oct. 11, 2024 (Fri) 18:44:11.07ID:euDsRIX90
Japanese people are only good at taking their time and feeling like they are doing a job, and their productivity is low.

You can’t get a PhD unless you’ve suffered academic harassment or have suffered from it, so I think you’re an idiot for even looking for one.
