Business Outlook

Pros

With the move towards Tegra, the company culture has changed for SW. There is a wide spectrum of opportunities in various technologies. Jensen's move towards Tegra was a very wise one. Management is fiercely loyal towards old timers that have contributed a lot. There is sufficient room for technical growth. Lots of promotions all around as the company size grows.

Cons

Very fast moving company, documentation not at par with larger companies. Not necessarily easy for new comers to come up to speed fast.
