Pros

- Very welcoming atmosphere - During the first 30 days, I received decent training on how to use ANSYS tools, in addition to softskills training - Team members are supportive and very helpful - Work pressure is good. Few days are crowded, and most days have fair workload - Flexible working hours: currently I'm working remotely for 4 days/week (only 1day/week in the office)

Cons

- Only 15-30% of my time goes for research. Most of the remaining time is spent on technical work mainly related to customers' issues/inquires. As a PhD graduate, I would like to have more of my time dedicated to research work.

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
