The Super Admin should always be able to see all users on his network from within the Network admin screen. The Super Admin can see from the network users screen what sites that user is a member of since current users can be ‘invited’ or assigned to other sites.
Admin’s on a site should be able to add users to their site.
The Profile is for the user themselves… (I’d never noticed that before. It just never came up).
User Access
By design, all users who are added to your network will be guests on all sites on your network. To allocate a different default role for users on individual sites, you must use a plugin.
The capabilities of the site administrator role are also reduced in a WordPress Network. Site admins cannot install new themes or plugins and cannot edit the profiles of users on their site. Only the Network Admin (aka Super Admin) has the ability to perform these tasks in a WordPress network.

There are some plugins that can modify some of these abilities.
Thanks. Although I read that article before posting here. Also, I am unclear as to what you are saying. So is that by design or a bug?
For example: If your the super admin, and your looking at the list of users. If a user is NOT the site admin, he/she has no visible profile. For example, if there is a user for a sub-site that only has “Author” privileges, if you hover over their name a link shows up that says “view”. Click that link and it will return “nothing found”.
Wait, I just checked again and realized that link shows content by the user, not meant to be a user profile I don’t think.
So yes, it is by design…
