Pros

Been with the company for many years and the money can be good when you have a good year. The company is also aggressive about acquiring technology to complement their offering.

Cons

In the San Jose, CA location there is heavy turnover. It's a tough environment where the top players get ousted on occasion and new employees are often washed out quickly. Morale has gone done as of late and the word seems to be getting around that this isn't a company that values their employees.

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
