Pros

Cree is full of hard-working, intelligent, dedicated employees. For that reason, it could be a great company.

Cons

Political environment from the top down (despite the fact that one of Cree's core values is that there is no room for politics). Little to no opportunity for career growth. Minimal wage increases that barely cover the annual increase in medical/dental benefits. Very top heavy and layer upon layer of managers ("too many chiefs").

Pros

Pockets of very talented and motivated employees. Phenomenal co-workers can be found. Great experience to introduce new and innovative products.

Cons

Internal teamwork is sometimes lacking. They have themes of "trust but verify" and "drive for results" that means you must micro-manage as many leaders expect. Collaboration within some silos is wanting. "Fast" has its draw-backs. Diversity of opinion is not welcome.

Pros

The benefits are good and great learning experience. The operators and techs are fantastic people. They make great LEDs at the expense of employee happiness.

Cons

Managers are disconnected with the teams and the company is an organizational chaos. They do not seek to improve on anything that is "working". Don't get paid well for the ridiculously long hours worked. Working 55-65 hours/week are considered normal. If you want to stay physically and mentally healthy, don't work here. There will be no life outside of work either. It seems that company holidays are also not really holidays as you might be required to work during those days. Cree doesn't care about employee happiness whatsoever.
