Pros

Free breakfast, good starting job, stable

Cons

Very micromanaged, always OTs if you work in manufacturing setting, no work-life balance, they work you until you slaved, low-pay, too much dramas, very little chance to be promoted unless you work x amount of years, hr doesn’t give 2 cents about you, PTOs are only 10 days, manager question you when you are sick and want to use PTOs, the list goes on and on, just read over the comments here and you will realize how bad this company has become besides their stocks. Extreme Toxic working environment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Toxic Work Culture

Pros

Working at Supermicro will teach you several valuable lessons in how to navigate a toxic workplace environment, but it will not be fun. A few people here are kind and approachable, but the majority are not.

Cons

The work culture here is toxic, characterized by fetishization of overwork. There's an alarming glorification of long hours, and people try to stay in the office long and get noticed. If you take a vacation, people will comment on it unfavorably. A blatant discriminatory culture favors certain employees based on language you speak and where you are from, creating a deeply unfair workplace. The less said about the HR department the better as they are completely useless and don't care about the employees. Some people in senior and director roles are so incompetent, it is surprising. If they ever join another company in the same industry like Dell, HPE or Lenovo, they would be laughed off from a mile away. Some employees engage in outright abusive behavior, and the leadership's response is appalling. Especially those that have stayed at the company for long and have good support from management tend to treat everyone else horribly while keeping their leadership and management oblivious to their true character. There's a monopolization of information among teams, which hampers effective collaboration. This lack of transparency breeds an environment of distrust and inefficiency. Multiple teams often duplicate efforts and waste resources. The management including CEO like multiple teams working on the same thing. Maybe they think this is a strategy to ensure success with redundancy but this often leads to infighting and a whole lot of stupidity.

Pros

Can’t think of anything. Maybe free fruit once a week

Cons

Everyone speaks Chinese so if you don’t speak it, you feel left out. In some ways, it’s disrespectful because if you don’t understand the language then you don’t know what’s going on or if people are talking about you. No one take any responsibility for anything, no room for growth, always high turnover because people are expected to do way too much with very little pay
