      Going downhill

      R&d engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Pay, and room for advancement

      Cons

      Overloaded with work. Work life balance is not great, worse since recent "reorg". Do not treat this as a 9 to 5, you will eventually have to bring home the work. The Burnout is real

      Professional Services Team under new executive team is toxic

      Senior staff asic engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Mid-level management and individual contributors still maintain a culture of ethics, hard work, good collaboration, and honesty.

      Cons

      VP, Senior VP, and above are disconnected from the people doing the actual work and are seem to be driven by Wall Street. They also have begun pushing "Slideware" (products that haven't even been conceived) as deliverable technology. The most recent addition is Synopsys.ai.
