Pros

- none really compared to other companies in the same industry segment/location

Cons

- - culture of terror / no career progression - no flexibility at all - only 10 days on vacation - only 40 hours of paid sick leaves - no work from home policy even if you are dying - i f yo have no sick days or vacation left they will not pay you if you get sick (like it is a hourly job rather than a full-time job) - no real perks besides medical/dental where you are still paying a monthly amount - no 401(k) match - all the software is old and internal so you WILL NOT find:Atlassian JIRA/Wiki, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Slack, G-Suite...etc - They will put meeting after hours and not allowing you to come 15 minutes later if needed - It feels like a dictatorship - Salary 20/30% lower than current market - If you get assigned RSUs they will not be vesting sooner than a year

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
