Pros

Nvidia has some of the smartest people around. There is a lot of respect for Jensen but a lot of decisions are made with out being challenged. There is a sense of blindly following the management's decision The pay package and benefits are competitive but the options are looking bleaker The engineering team is known for good products and tighter timelines for roll out Sitting on 1.6B in cash is definitely an advantage

Cons

Stress and not much of work life balance Be prepared for long hours Mirco managers and big egos are always around there is a lot of politics around. A lot of FUBAR!

a great company that is growing a little bit too fast....

Pros

The employees are in average more talented than anywhere else I have worked. Nvidia products have a great public exposure : this is quite rewarding to go to Frys and see the products I have worked on. Good compensation/benefits package : ESPP is good way to make extra-money. Stock-options can also be a good motivator if you are not afraid of the volatility of the stock

Cons

The company has grown a lot for the last three years, and it starts to weigh on the dynamism and the reactivity of the company. The talent average suffers also from it Too many people tend to "work from home" too often and this is sometimes frustrating. It is tough to compete against Intel and AMD : Nvidia success does not depend only on its hard work.
