      Choose Intel if you can.

      Pros

      This company has brought a lot of formerly-high-end features to the PC. If it wasn't for it people would still be playing 3D games on workstations. 3D graphics is a very rewarding field to work in, probably more rewarding than anything else in IT.

      Cons

      The people in power are incompetent. It used to be that those in power came from other companies and were really good and took decisions which reliably bent over the competition. These people have long ago left and have been replaced with promoted people who have no idea what they're doing. These new people obsess, backstab, in fact, they do anything they can to hide their inability to think properly. The rank and file then has to live with the pressure.

      Great ASIC design experience, but expectations can often be unrealistic

      Pros

      NVIDIA offers the ability to obtain a lot of broad experience in the ASIC industry. Your assignments can vary wildly from project to project, but this can cause problems when projects (and their schedules) aren't properly managed. For example, designs can be compromised by inconsistent ownership and poor understanding of the design.

      Cons

      Long-term prospects for NVIDIA are somewhat uncertain in the context of AMD' and Intel's platform ownership. Inconsistent management focus leads to disappointing project performance.

      Think before you leap!

      Pros

      Nvidia is a very flexible place when it comes to policies. A very competitive place to be in, hires best of people around. Project Execution is the priority. Decisions are quick, risk taking is very high. Overall lot of action...

      Cons

      If you are not disciplined, then work-life balance is screwed. There could be big disparity in salaries, fair compensation need not be a concern for the company. Look out for managers ready to stab in the name of culture.. There is no skip levels, feedback always flows downwards..., so if you are in a position of power, you can screw your reportees, smile to top management and still walk away with a fat pay check.
