Pros

* Smallest big tech company---much less bureaucracy * Exciting projects * Fully-remotability and working hour flexibility * Agile and passionate culture * Competitive benefits and compensation * Lovely and visionary CEO and e-staff * Open culture

Cons

* Internal tools or out-of-box setup almost don't exist---especially when comparing with other giant big tech like Google or Meta. I have to set up my own environment. It's fun to me but can be painful to many people * No annual cash bonus (RSU refresh yes) * From what I heard, internal transfer notifies the manager before the first interview with other teams * Can be very busy on some days

Pros

Management is competent and actually cares about employee welfare. Jensen is the least sociopathic CEO I've ever worked under. The work has been interesting and I was actually allowed to do things right, and not just "right now".

Cons

The company is 3X the size it was when I joined, with all the usual problems of massive growth. And of course the AI hype at Nvidia is intense.

Pros

NVIDIA's PTO and Sick policies are compassionate and generous. Managers listen to employees' ideas. Employees get to work on a wider variety of projects than expected, and usually work closely with other teams to get things done. Collaboration is tight almost all of the time.

Cons

Employees don't always get insight into why they were assigned a particular project, or have much if any choice about what projects they get to work on. Managers are often too busy working on projects themselves to have the free time to meet with employees on a regular basis. This leads to short-term, reactive thinking rather than long-term visionary thinking.
