      Pros

      Good working environment. Understanding management, provide the tools needed for the job and the support structure. Sensible management team eg. no layoffs during the economic downturn.

      Cons

      The benefits are not that great as compared to other companies. Less scope of promotion as the number of layers are less.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good benefits - full slate from medical, vision, dental to life isurance, 401K. Competent CEO. Flexible hours for handling personal and family needs. Microchip has a good downturn strategy to avoid layoffs, continue product development, and avoid restaffing problems during recovery.

      Cons

      Poor performance recognition by management, and a culture that encourages mediocre performance. Actual employee performance has little to do with promotion and compensation - these are likely to happen regardless of performance just over time. Internal politics hampers product development and innovation. Offices consist of cubicle farms.
