Pros

Nvidia really values it's employees and compensates them accordingly. I got very generous RSUs and ESPP discounts on Nvidia stock, which have made we wealthy in retirement. The company is the best-managed I ever worked for. Jensen Huang is a genius . His ability to play a long game by nurturing promising new technologies that other companies are ignoring (e.g. GPGPU/Cuda) has grown NVIDIA into the trillion-dollar company it is today.

Cons

None, really. Although in full disclosure, I should explain why I left. I had become a bit bored and burned out in my job -- doing basically the same thing for several years -- and wanted a change. I was unable to make an internal transition to any other group that interested me, so I took an opportunity elsewhere.

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.
