Pros

- OK for entry level and learning the ropes as someone fresh to the industry - Free breakfast bread - Some people are excellent at what they do

Cons

- Archaic and manual internal processes (CEO still manually signs off on paperwork) - Lack of professionalism and expertise within departments - departments responsible will ignore you if they dont know the answer. - Low Pay - Toxic culture, sales teams compete and steal customers from each other all the time, making SMCI look terrible to customers. Accounts are taken and given to favorites, no proper setup and distinction between inside sales, account managers, and BD. - Lack of proper sales training - Huge attitude of "not my problem" with most people within the company, you will be blamed for everything that goes wrong in sales. - Woefully underqualified management, people love to take credit and not much else. Do not work here if you value your mental health.

Pros

RSU Stocks, they give you a ton, total comp could be higher than industry average depend on how well the stock perform Stable, easy job Good people for the most part but def depend on what team you get into Nice big campus Good health benefits Free breakfast & dinner boxes If you speak mandarin, viet, or canto, just want a job with average pay, good benefits to take care of your family, and don't care about work life balance or career growth, this is honestly great

Cons

Unflexible hours, need to come in at 9am no matter what, doesn't matter how late you worked until on the previous day. Hard to find parking (why hire so many people if you don't even have space for them) Noisy, crammed office area, with people coughing all the time Insanely outdated, inefficient system. Most staff can barely speak English nor are skillful, they are trapped in this Chinatown, and other companies likely will never hire them for this reason alone, people around you either stay for 1 year or 20 years. I appreciate how company will never do layoffs, but half the staff could be gone, and company will function just fine.
