Pros

Decent compensation Nvidia Bangalore Centre works on the latest technologies, there are opportunities to learn and grow technically. If you are a geek and like slogging out for long hours, you might like this place..

Cons

Work life Balance can be very bad in some groups, particularly the groups doing backend design work. Aggressive work culture. Attending daily night calls and meetings can be troublesome for many. Most people would put in lot of hours even on weekends and holidays , setting the same standard for others. Heavy email traffic puts a lot of stress and can decrease productivity. No proper documentation on the complicated flows, very difficult for a new joinee to learn the flows in a short time and become productive. Stock doesn't seem to be going anywhere, the RSU's are no match to what other top companies are paying. It used to be a place once which was known to be a top paymaster and cutting edge work. However now it has lost its shine in the market, companies like LSI, Qualcomm, Broadcom are paying more for the same talent. Work has become just so and so, they do not need top brains anymore for doing such work. Mad rush to enter into the management ladder has resulted in lot of office politics. If you do not have a good reputation with your manager, you will go nowhere in this company, no matter how good work you do.

Pros

NVIDIA's PTO and Sick policies are compassionate and generous. Managers listen to employees' ideas. Employees get to work on a wider variety of projects than expected, and usually work closely with other teams to get things done. Collaboration is tight almost all of the time.

Cons

Employees don't always get insight into why they were assigned a particular project, or have much if any choice about what projects they get to work on. Managers are often too busy working on projects themselves to have the free time to meet with employees on a regular basis. This leads to short-term, reactive thinking rather than long-term visionary thinking.
