      Pros

      I joined the company straight out of college and as a junior member, I was actively encouraged to ideate, explore, and brainstorm solutions. The team is highly supportive of this, and this was a standout aspect for me. I had a great team and a fun work environment. There's a great synergy among colleagues, especially amongst the junior members, and a strong willingness to assist one another. During the initial years, particularly as a fresher, I had a great learning experience. This included mastering problem-solving, thinking “parallel” and utilizing the company's distributed computing framework. The managers and the director are consistently supportive, and hard work is duly recognized and rewarded. If I recall correctly, at the time I was with the team, almost half of the employees had been part of the team for for nearly a decade. This truly speaks to the strength of the team culture The pay was decent at the time I was with the company.

      Cons

      For fast learners, a few years into the job, one might notice a leveling off of the learning curve. However, this appears to be a common pattern across many companies. The team, however, is proactively addressing this issue by providing access to a variety of external resources like LinkedIn Learning and organizing regular sessions with guest lecturers.

      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
