Business Outlook

Pros

The pro is that I no longer work at NVIDIA.

Cons

Do you like to be micromanaged? Are you searching for a manager who will sabotage your projects? Do you get a thrill watching your manager swoop in like a superhero to save the project that she sabotaged? Do you admire HR scarecrows who support inept and damaged managers? Do you enjoy working with insecure colleagues who cower before the might of the micromanager? If so then you will love working here, reveling in your low self-esteem.

Great company, but not the management

Business Outlook

Pros

A lot of smart and hard working people. You can learn from each other everyday. CEO is smart and have great vision to shift the business from GPU gaming to AI, deep learning, robotic, autonomous car, and professional VR. The company is leading the technology trend and the stock is doing super well.

Cons

C player middle management and they are just lazy functional managers. Very political and treating their staff as scapegoats for the mistakes they made. A lot of good employees left because of favoritism, unfair workload, inner circle politic, and lack of transparent communication.

Business Outlook

Pros

High-tech, cutting edge, state-of-the-art, culturally diverse. They've got a great cafeteria and facility. But that's about all. Is that twenty words?

Cons

Do not pay on time. Sometimes I had to wait two months to be paid. When you have a complaint, they don't listen.
