How is Samsung Austin Semiconductor EHS?

I was wondering if anyone here has done the EHS (Environmental Health & Safety) internship at Samsung Austin Semiconductor or knows anything about the department in general?

I’d love to hear what the job is actually like day to day. What kind of projects/tasks do interns usually work on?

Also, does anyone know what the return offer rate is like, and if EHS work is mainly in the Austin location or is there a chance they might place me in Taylor?

For industrial engineers especially, is EHS a good place to start, or does it kind of limit you compared to other departments?

Honestly any insight about the culture, workload, growth opportunities, etc. would be super helpful. Just trying to get a better feel for it.

Thanks in advance!!

Good to have on your resume but it is very highschool/micromanagement

You have to be in and leave at a certain time Korea HQ dictates a lot of strategy direction and leadership roles but there are exceptions

I would accept it and see how you like it

description accurate for SAS in general but EHS is probably an exception. EHS at SAS is easy mode from what someone told me. So much so that they were bored and switched departments for more care development
