Crazy. The culture is so different 
“The American engineers complained of rigid, counterproductive hierarchies at the company; Taiwanese TSMC veterans described their American counterparts as lacking the kind of dedication and obedience they believe to be the foundation of their company’s world-leading success.”

Is it also because any construction in America takes so much time now?

Yea! That’s fair - so it’s just the cultural differences majorly

Depends on what state. California for example can take 1.5-2 years just to get permits. Other states, this is not the case.

Makes sense. That culture collision would be really hard to solve.

Doubt it. Not in this case. The bottleneck is culture collision.
