Objections over long hours? Unlikely. Assuming TSMC (and their contractors) pays overtime...
I want quotes from actual people doing the work.
My bestie was a welder working on fabs in the 80s and 90s. In Phoenix. Lax regulation, lax oversight. He loved the work, loved the pay.
And he locked horns with mgmt. Every single day. Mostly over safety issues. Cutting corners, skipping steps, providing the necessary training.
And all of his employers were USA corporations. Even back then, operational fabs make millions of dollars per day. Clock is ticking! Every day, hour, minute the fab isn't running is pure waste. The pressure to "get 'er done!" is immense.
They couldn't fire my welder buddy, much as they wanted to, because specialists like him were so scarce.
This is not a "cultural" mismatch. Please.
This is straight up mgmt vs labor. As old as history.

Lather, rinse, repeat.
