2011 performance
Results | Looking ahead
Darla Whitaker, senior vice president for TI Worldwide Human Resources, testified on behalf of TI and the Semiconductor Industry Association at a Congressional hearing in Washington, D.C., about how to retain U.S. university graduates holding advanced degrees in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields. Whitaker mentioned TI's support of legislation that would remove per-country caps on employment-based visas to help clear the backlog of students from high-demand countries. Passing this bill would vastly improve American competitiveness and secure our place as the world's innovation leader.
Results
In 2011, our retention efforts had the following effects:
- Hired and successfully onboarded 3,169 new employees.
- Promoted 6 percent of all employees.
- Global employee-initiated turnover was 6.5 percent, a slight increase since 2010. The average tenure of our global workforce is 12 years. Forty-eight percent of employees have been with TI for 10 years or more, and 21 percent have been with TI for 20 years or more.
- Retained more than 5,000 National Semiconductor employees and eliminated about 350 redundant positions following the acquisition.
