Pros

Corporate offices are nice. Most frontline workers are helpful and genuine. Company is profitable. Seems to be a lot of career opportunities, but due to turnover.

Cons

Onboarding was laughable. Ongoing HR training was more like going through the motions, it wasn’t deep enough to really instill the skills or values. Lots of politics, indecisiveness, and infighting at the director/VP level. Poor organization design, no competency models, compensation structure is kept secret.

Pros

Flexibility with WFH/Hybrid depending on your job/team Great starting PTO + decent sick/family time Challenging work Smart, hard-working co-workers People work here for decades because it's a great work culture

Cons

It's a software company. Cramming features in at the last minute, and requiring long hours from testing & doc to meet deadlines, is frustrating but not unexpected Benefits are just OK - lost all of my doctors when they stopped having one local insurance option If you're in R&D but not an engineer, you are undervalued for bonuses No upward path if you don't want to manage - eventually you stagnate and have nowhere to go Agile dev process is challenging for documentation and testing and is not always realistic with big projects Huge uncertainty after Synopsys buyout - I've had bad experiences with EDA companies undervaluing some jobs in the past (testing/doc] so not feeling any job security at the moment
