Pros

Extremely personable and responsive employers, flexible hours, beautiful new building, amazing lunch catering at a great price, and much room to take your career where you want it if you just ask and put in the work.

Cons

As a mechanical engineer, I felt like I was stuck behind a desk and computer way too often. Most of the engineers in Corporate Testing have mechanical engineering degrees, but the work is mostly computer oriented, highly repetitive, and does not require much mechanical engineering knowledge. I will be searching for a future career that pertains more to my major.

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
