Pros

* CEO is employee-centric, often strong-arming HR into implementing the policies that employees ask for. * Compensation is incredibly high, even before accounting for stock price increases. * Work-life balance is great - there is no expectation to kill yourself with work or to be available beyond the typical working hours. * Employees own their work and decide how to push it forward, and are not micro-managed ("the mission is the boss"). * The remote vs hybrid vs onsite decision is yours alone, you choose what works best for you. This is reiterated by the CEO every quarter when the question inevitably comes up. * NVIDIA has its fingers in way more pies than people generally realize, which makes for really interesting projects and inter-department collaborations. * There is virtually no silo effect, people reach across teams constantly.

Cons

* I wish I had joined sooner instead of wasting time at less fulfilling companies.

Pros

Fantastic work culture, great work life balance. People are genuinely excited about what they are working on and the projects are cutting edge. Unlimited tokens (for now at least). Flexible hybrid policy, and easy to take PTO. Leadership is very forward thinking, for a large company there's a lot of sense that employees matter. No layoffs in almost 20 years. Food is pretty good and subsidized. Great benefits, and competitive compensation especially for hardware roles.

Cons

Only minor gripes - currently no gym, and the parking is very limited at HQ. This is being addressed, but won't be completed until 2028. Company has been growing faster than the offices, so there aren't enough desks for everyone. Slightly inconvenient when you can't get a temp desk where you need, but most of the time it's no problem.
