Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
What do you like best about the leadership team?
My actual supervisor is a good person who does their best to look after their team. The rest is full of sycophants and yes men who worship the CEO as if he is the Corporate Messiah. Dan Malinaric is directly responsible for the conditions that lead to the layoffs.
on time execution of all projects
Communication is vital and spread information to each site.
Microchip leader lives and lead according to the MCHP Guiding Values
They are very transparent and take time to communicate.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
being proactive instead of reactive to problems. less arrogant when it comes to customers and more respectful of employees
Review from Operations Dept
Training junior employees at Microchip because they lack some skills
Please update technology in development and improve quality in products
Being fair to all employees
When you acquire a company, they should meld into your corporation. Not act as a separate entity. The big exodus is coming to tech, Microchip is gonna feel worse than most.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
Quarterly salary review program and Employee stock purchase plan.
RSU, stock purchase and quarterly bonuses

getting paid as much as other co pay
Review from Engineering Dept
MCHP makes a point of paying the absolute minimum. Most people only stick around long enough to realize they will never get a raise.

Equality, Good mentor, Work life Balance
All are very supportive and work is distributed evenly
Review from Engineering Dept
Team has great attitude and work hard to support eachother.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
End the back stabbing and ensure discipline or expulsion of slackers in the production line. It's one thing, maybe, to "punch the clock," but for heaven's sake, DO THE WORK..... Most people truly DO the work, but obvious slackers infect morale and thus productivity. Wise up HR... Forego slackers!
Review from Operations Dept
Meetings are just terrible. No plan, no schedule, just a projector and some guy who did not prepare.... That is what they call a meeting.
