Pros

Cadence is a very relaxed place to work. There is not much work pressure. Plus, it is the market leader in the field.

Cons

The growth opportunities at Cadence are very limited. Since the company doesnt make new products. If you work on the R & D division, it is pretty much bug fixing. There is not much use of creative talent. Needless to say this attracts people who have a very fixed mind set.
