Pros

- NVIDIA works on cutting edge technologies ranging from graphics to supercomputing. - NVIDIA's work is very innovative with great directions from top leaders to seize new opportunities where GPU's can be utilized like computing, AI etc. - Overall facilities are good. - You get to work with top class engineers in the US.

Cons

- Pune management especially QA and automation follow whatever is asked by the US mgmt. They don't have a team vision/strategy of their own. They will let the team suffer instead of questioning anything to the US mgmt. - Pune center shows signs of bozo explosion; bozos hiring bozos from other companies and wannabe bozos from colleges. - Engineers keen on passing on their action items to others. That defines success. Doing what is good for the business or the organization may not get much value.

Pros

Management is competent and actually cares about employee welfare. Jensen is the least sociopathic CEO I've ever worked under. The work has been interesting and I was actually allowed to do things right, and not just "right now".

Cons

The company is 3X the size it was when I joined, with all the usual problems of massive growth. And of course the AI hype at Nvidia is intense.

Pros

NVIDIA's PTO and Sick policies are compassionate and generous. Managers listen to employees' ideas. Employees get to work on a wider variety of projects than expected, and usually work closely with other teams to get things done. Collaboration is tight almost all of the time.

Cons

Employees don't always get insight into why they were assigned a particular project, or have much if any choice about what projects they get to work on. Managers are often too busy working on projects themselves to have the free time to meet with employees on a regular basis. This leads to short-term, reactive thinking rather than long-term visionary thinking.
