Pluspunten

Free breakfast: day old bagels, steamed buns, and a selection of bread every morning, 2 pieces of free fruit every Wednesday, and milk (seriously HR is REALLY proud of that one). This company doesn't know how to trim the fat. If you're looking to take it easy and looking for a free ride this could easily be your ticket. Nearly all the departments have bumps on a log that everyone just tolerates but no one wants to fire even though they're not bringing anything to the table. Management wants to save face instead of getting rid of the dead weight. It's too hard for anyone to admit that someone was a bad hire.

Minpunten

The CEO thinks that 10lbs of oatmeal is a suitable anniversary gift to the entire company (On the upside local food banks got plenty of donations). This company is super Taiwanese so if you don't speak mandarin you'll have a difficult time communicating with over half the company. Be prepared to play a highly political game. This is a very hostile work environment and Charles actually likes having people pitted against each other. HR is totally useless. I've seen so many people being verbally abused by their bosses and even heard about people physically striking their employees. SMC is a very strange place to work, because you'll never work anywhere else where everyone is openly talking about wanting to leave or hear about so many people quitting without giving notice.

Pluspunten

I have enjoyed working in the Supermicro IT & DataCenter infrastructure group. It's an exciting opportunity to be directly involved in some of the most impactful trends in the industry, including AI infrastructure, liquid cooling, high-density computing, and next-generation data center design. As an IT Director focused on Applications and data center infrastructure, I have been able to work with talented, dedicated engineers and business leaders to meet complex customer requirements. The company moves quickly, embraces innovation, and provides opportunities to make meaningful contributions rather than getting lost in layers of bureaucracy.

Minpunten

The pace can be demanding, and priorities sometimes shift as the business continues to grow rapidly. There are times when processes, tools, and organizational structures are still catching up to the company's expansion. Success often requires flexibility, a willingness to take ownership, and the ability to navigate ambiguity. Employees who prefer highly structured environments and clearly defined boundaries may find the pace challenging.
