Pros

Recognizes employees for achievements Good pay, nice bonuses and rewards Flexible choices for work environment, supports choices for work/life balance Encourages and pays for training Mostly smart, friendly, inclusive people Offers multiple paths depending on your desired focus in your career

Cons

The more you do, the more they want you to do (highly stressful) If you don't learn to say no, they will suck the life out of you Some tools and processes are behind the times Typical issues with "silos" Constantly changing business priorities/decisions No global doc leadership, no content management system, no editor on staff, inconsistent tools and processes A lot of inconsistency in delivered content Failures are not openly discussed, so no learning opportunity there

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
