Pros

Easy to transfer from a team to anther one. Business/technical information is relatively open and available if you know where to look and have time to figure it out. Chances to learn some technologies that may help you land next job.

Cons

Flexible hours -- Some BUs are more demanding. If you are in these BUs, you have the flexibility of choosing which 10~12 hours to work in a weekday. Pay -- For many employees their raises during the past a few years are far less than inflation. Benefits -- No accrued vacation days. Vacation approval is used as a bargaining chip by the first line manager.

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.
