Thank you, I was lost reading the comments. Funny that all the comments shitting on managers are speaking their language.
I am actually abhorred by the word "individual" as part of IC (which I luckily hadn't encountered before, so I had to look it up). It appears very pejorative to me, as if all cooperation goes via the management instead of directly between team members.
At ASML, they could also be integrated circuits being baked in an oven to cure.
