Fantastic work, but almost no job security

Business Outlook

Pros

Great cutting edge work. IN the IP teams one gets to work on blocks/IPs that are brand new , very complex and very challenging. The work-schedules are reasonalbe too. Pay is on par with industry standards

Cons

The directions from top management/executives is increasingly confusing, and decisions seem very myopic. Layoffs have become the managements favorite pastime. If the buisness does not look good, then layoff the entire team, then suddenly start hiring like crazy for another team. The next year, the same story repeats. And as you increase in experience levels, job security gets that much lesser.
