Pros

Very good benefits (you start off with 4 weeks of vacation). Lots of focus on people development; Quite open to people moving across the company to different roles; It is the market leader in processor IP and the brand really helps in other markets as well. A truly global company. They give young people early chance to succeed.

Cons

If you're not based in Cambridge (UK), you're out of the loop. It's a very political company. And senior executives push their boys onto the big stage. Suddenly out of nowhere, you'll see young and very smart (but woefully unprepared) people being thrust into senior positions. Or mediocre people out of Cambridge sent to fill key roles in the satellite offices.

Avoid the mess!

Pros

Had a really great total comp before they started revoking large parts of my reward package and basically gave me a pay decrease.

Cons

The entire org is a straight up mess! Overly bloated teams, but not the correct resources required to accomplish the work efficiently. US employees get the shaft in career development compared to the UK. Complete uncertainty day to day on what to expect from Softbank for the future of the company. Not knowing at any minute if my job was at risk of layoff creating so much stress that I left for my own mental health.

Pros

Work is relatively good. People are good and not much politics like in other places.

Cons

No clear roadmap. Benefits are not competitive for the market.
