Super Micro Computer, Inc. (Supermicro) reviews

- Unless you are related to or favored by upper management your career is on hold the moment you first step through the doors of this business. - Narcissists and sycophants are rewarded. Most of the mid-level managers fit this description. Politics rule the office. - Most of the office areas here are dark and depressing dungeons that will slowly drain the life out of you. - Good luck if you don't speak Mandarin. Even many employees with good English skills will speak Mandarin to others when you are in the room and a part of the conversation. This is very offensive. - You'll almost never see the light of day because you are often expected to work close to or over 12 hours a day, usually to make up for someone's mistake. - The compensation here is terrible, and good luck getting _any_ sort of significant raise or promotion even if you put in an exceptional effort. The credit for anything you do that actually gets noticed will go to your manager. - You have to get the CEO to sign something or nobody will act and your projects--no matter how minor they are--will not get done. Everyone is so afraid of offending the man that they don't want to tell him any bad news. This is a shame, because he is the only one that can fix the problems. - There is no proper communication between departments or with customers and most of it is about blaming others for delays and mistakes. - There are multiple meetings each week that pretty much the entire company gets dragged in to. These consist of nearly indecipherable propaganda speeches and public humiliation of employees.

-No management style, no company culture, no respect from some Taiwanese who sit high. some horrible people get their way around coz they are close to the top management, they follow orders very well and only say yes to the big boss. management doesnt deal with the internal problems as they only focus on turnovers. money is everything they care about. -Internal communication and "coorperation" is the worst i've ever seen. you wanna get your things done? beg! pretend to be the horrible people's friend!! or you have to have the top management's agreement before you go to the specific person. pure bureaucratic company. -Bad (English) communication among the Taiwanese, they don't know how to talk proper English, and they don't know how to treat their colleagues, act like uneducated. -They steal distributors' customers away from the channel. -Lack of personal development opportunities
