Pros

At first, I was excited to work for Marvell. But after only being here for 6 months, these are the only pros: -Gym -My colleagues (excluding direct management) -Plenty of parking -Medical benefits

Cons

-Micromanagement is the only kind of management -Out-of-date processes (or lack of processes) -Resistance to new ideas and tools -No focus on growth of the employee (all "promotions" based on who you know) -Upper management seems to be concerned with "hoarding" money instead of spending it on adding more staff, improving benefits, or providing sufficient licenses for tools -Absolutely no work/life balance (management constantly suggests to work weekends and 12-hour days) -No flexible hours (maybe just my particular group) -1 person does the workload of multiple people

Pros

-high impact work, high visibility, hyped field (AI Infra) -most teams don't have daily standups like traditional software companies, less useless meetings -insanely smart employees -5 days office but management is very lenient; any small reason to wfh is perfectly fine -feels good to be here

Cons

pay could be better if compared to the big leagues like nvidia and broadcom
