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

Pros

The culture and coworkers were amazing. It was a great environment to work in and there is a lot of knowledge to be shared.

Cons

I was hired for a position and the hiring manager had a family emergency that forced an early retirement. Due to this there was restructuring and my experience and expertice wasn't needed by the new managers vision for the department so my position was eliminated. This was unfortunate and should have been handled better from management. The new manager had my team added to his responsibilities so he didn't want to change things and create more work for himself.
