Microchip Technology reviews

non competitive salary, long work hours

Formerly Atmel and still operates like Atmel. Management is the same so they operate the same way. Operators are treated more as a number than as an individual. Not much personal freedom and very micromanaged. Management clearly is biased and displays favoritism to advance people they like rather than people who are qualified. Many long time employees who wish to advance are being held back because of this and morale is greatly suffering from working for supervisors and fab managers who do not respect them or seem to have their future career interests in mind. Operators are being threatened with write ups if they have a "bad attitude" instead of management trying to figure out why morale is so low.
