Pros
The pay for the work is good.
Cons
People mistreat people to survive. A lot of bullying, credit stealing and backstabbing.
Pros
Nvida is a good place to learn and grow. Provides a healthy, competitive environment.
Cons
Absolutely hard to balance personal time because of demanding schedules and work culture. Employees are required/expected to work round the clock/weekends. No big benefits. Salary compensation is not good as years progress.
Pros
if you work hard, you can learn quite a lot from a beginner since you have so much to do.
Cons
a lot of "rude" people around. you will get tired after some years. no 401k, no bonus, no PTO. no matter how good the company do, you only get your own salary, nothing more. wait, CEO mentinoned you can get ESPP.
Advice to Senior Management
working culture is bad. compensation sucks. employee needs PTO 401k etc.
Pros
You can work at home and work on flexible schedule if you like.
Cons
People are treated just like a piece of resource. You got moved around between projects and different units a lot. This makes it difficult for employee to build up the expertise.
Advice to Senior Management
I have no problem with the management's leadership.
Pros
Great health care insurance.
Cutting edge technology.
Cons
Overworked; no work-life balance.
No more stock options for everyone below directors level.
Less and less perks. NV becomes just an average place to work at.
Pros
Good & Smart people/Engineer/Managers everywhere
Leading edge technology, and great products
Flexible working hour
Project oriented
Better than average salary
Cons
No 401K, No gym in any building in SC
Too many emails everyday
Not enough meeting rooms, hard to book one during normal working hour
Advice to Senior Management
Keep the good work, spend time to listen or work with your employees.
Finalize the POR and changes at the early design stage, do not change too many times.
Pros
work flexible, work in global team
Cons
some positions' work load is too high
Advice to Senior Management
compensation should match work contribution
Pros
i think the dont judge people ..they allow you to show ur talent and help you improve urself...provide good money
Cons
no downsides...u will have problems only if u are not interested in digital hardware...not a good company for software guys
Advice to Senior Management
i think the company is doing well...only problem is that they should involve offices outside US in marketing(not sure though)
Pros
There is a lot of cool stuff happening as this company reinvents itself from just pushing pixels to pushing data around everywhere. NVIDIA is very open internally, so it's very easy to see the level of excitement flowing around; it's nice to generally know about what's happening around you, too.
Cons
NVIDIA is organized to pinch pennies, be it in the compute infrastructure or in employee compensation. Everybody works very hard, but compensation is subpar for the industry; benefits (401k matching?) similarly lack.
Pros
Flexible work conditions (hours, location).
Semi-annual review process is pretty well done --- definitely a meritocracy.
Company does annual survey of employees to try to improve, but then it doesn't necessarily act on the results.
Interesting projects.
Pretty good support for personal development.
Cons
Not as much collaborative engineering as I had hoped.
Compensation adjustment pool varies randomly from year to year so increase in level of performance doesn't necessarily result in increased compensation.
