Pros

- work from home - ok salary, but not great - free coffee - nothing else is free, think vending machines for snacks like at the hospital

Cons

Worst Management I've seen in the industry 1. no strategy or vision for next generation products; only short term revenue matters 2. no career growth or development; forget about getting a promotion, haven't had a raise since I started 3. Nepotism: they like to hire relatives 3. insanely siloed business environment; adjacent groups do not talk to one another nor do they cooperate - One Synopsys is a joke! 4. if you think you'll have an opportunity to get trained up on the latest CAD tools, think again. There are very limited training opportunities for employees and what does exist is pretty superficial and hence useless.
