average score:

- type of organization: public
- size: large (101 to 500 people)
- website: www.plxtech.com
- development offices:
Stolen from the corporate web site: PLX has been developing I/O interconnect devices since 1994 and is a public company on Nasdaq traded as stock symbol PLXT. Originally focused on PCI-based products, it was a natural progression for PLX to develop products based on PCI Express (PCIe). Most of our customers can either migrate their legacy systems to PCI Express, or today obtain a high-performance PCIe solution for their latest, leading-edge system designs. PLX entered the consumer and small office storage market with the 2009 acquisition of Oxford Semiconductor. Our corporate office is located in Sunnyvale, CA USA with additional technical offices in China, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Singapore and the United Kingdom.

We got a new CEO, who has given us lots of window dressing and "feel good" messages. However, after all the ado about "corporate values" all we have are some expensive posters that haven't changed a thing.
Benefits: very mediocre health plan, stock options that you have to leave to take advantage of, (really!) no more 401K matching. Underwhelming salarys, but you can eat all the leftovers whenever the Sales People have a meeting.
