Pros

NVIDIA enables talented people to do their life’s work and make a difference in fields from Computer Graphics to Deep Learning. Fast paced culture means that ideas/products/focus are constantly evolving. Seeing the work that you do make a difference. NVIDIA technology is at the forefront in shaping the future of healthcare; driving innovation in cloud services; winning Oscars for special effects; revolutionary the fields of robotics & autonomous vehicles. All of these breakthroughs are driven by empowered individuals and/or small teams. Working in the enterprise team we get to work with talented and wonderful customers who are often at the forefront of changing workflows within their industries. Engaging with these individuals is what makes every day special.

Cons

Everyone is trying to be the best version of themselves - this means you have to be prepared to share and defend ideas; receive critical feedback, not platitudes; be proud of your work but never be satisfied. Time is short; you need to work at the speed of light and be prepared to change direction; drop good ideas in favor of great ones. New hires need to be self-starting - not being afraid to ask questions of leaders and peers.

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.
