Cons
If you are a global company being purchased by ANSYS, be prepared the destiny will be very different based on your regions. The managing system is very regional and not globally working.

Flexibility with WFH/Hybrid depending on your job/team
Great starting PTO + decent sick/family time
Challenging work
Smart, hard-working co-workers
People work here for decades because it's a great work culture
Cons
It's a software company. Cramming features in at the last minute, and requiring long hours from testing & doc to meet deadlines, is frustrating but not unexpected
Benefits are just OK - lost all of my doctors when they stopped having one local insurance option
If you're in R&D but not an engineer, you are undervalued for bonuses
No upward path if you don't want to manage - eventually you stagnate and have nowhere to go
Agile dev process is challenging for documentation and testing and is not always realistic with big projects
Huge uncertainty after Synopsys buyout - I've had bad experiences with EDA companies undervaluing some jobs in the past (testing/doc] so not feeling any job security at the moment
