Pros

*flexible work schedule * benefits are good * a lot of employees stay here for a career * world leader in what they = job security

Cons

* pay is low compared to market/competitors * management is not transparent and believes everything is ok but it’s clear moral is in the toilet in different parts of the company * management wants feedback but if a person says how they really feel your labeled negative and will not be eligible for promotions/advancement * a lot of people are in positions their not qualified for. Folks who have little experience and people who have been with the company a long while

Pros

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
