      Pros

      Probably above-average stability for being a US-based semiconductor company in 2015 Good work-life balance

      Cons

      No creativity in this company's DNA, same emphasis on revolutionary products as you'd find in the gardening tools and dress sock industries Headquarters are far away in a low-cost-of-living state, severely limits career paths as well as hopes for competitive salaries

      NCG review

      Engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      MCHP tries it's best to keep it's employees through any hardships. For the most part the company is "relaxed" as a whole. One has almost zero worry about loosing his/her job at MCHP. Great place to start out of college, but not the best if you want decent money compared to your graduating peers.

      Cons

      MCHP is acquiring company after company, which is good for the company but has started to shift the core ideals this company was founded on. A new influx of work has flooded the current staff with the new acquisitions. The salaries for NCG are not competitive. The company touts it's compensation is based on the market to encourage better involvement and ownership of work. While this sounds nice and to a point is true, it's really just their excuse to pay you less if you'r e new to the industry.
