Pros

The people are friendly and everybody is important to their respected team. I feel like Microchip is a stable company with no layoffs in the recent past and none in the foreseeable future.

Cons

Pay raises are few and far between across the entire company. The company is very cost conscious, which is a good thing for shareholders except that as employees we end up using old and outdated equipment and computers.

Pros

There are a handful of people here who are fantastic to work with, are very knowledgeable, and care about the product that's going out the door.

Cons

Leadership is fundamentally out of touch and appears indifferent to employee well-being. The culture is marred by nepotism and a lack of accountability, where 'guiding values' are preached but never practiced. Feedback is discouraged, and those who speak up are often targeted. Expect a 'reward' of more work for the same pay, as promotions are rare and promised bonuses are frequently withheld despite strong site performance. A very frustrating and toxic environment for those who value merit and transparency.

Pros

Nothing is good here, avoid! Everything they would say to you over the phone and in the interview process is a lie.

Cons

They promise you stocks for what they call "salary sacrifice", a 10% salary cut because "they don't do layoffs". However, low-key, they start laying people off after they contribute a lot of money to the "collective salary sacrifice" they won't see any of it back, that's stealing and makes me very pissed off.
