Pros

If you are a chinese who needs an H1B visa, please try Super Micro. Super Micro would not lay off you easily.

Cons

The salary is the lowest while the working hours are the longest (more than 11 hours a day, 6 days a week), you will be pushed to beyond your limit, a typicial chinese (taiwanese) company, their strategy is to hire Chinese who need H1-B visas, then treat them like slaves.
