Pros

NVIDIA is a great place to work, with challenging tasks and intelligent people. Some may find the workload and expected commitment too high. The benefits to employees are very good (esp. stock options) and managers acknowledge people who know their stuff and work hard. Promotions and salary are based on your work and nothing else, which is nice. The overall company management is very enthused and energetic which helps make it exciting to work there. Overall, this is a very good place to work if you have the time to commit to work, otherwise the work/life balance can be very hard to maintain.

Cons

By far the worst part about NVIDIA is the hours that many employees work.

Pros

NVIDIA has a great brand name, good organization culture, great work-life balance and boasts of a highly motivated work force. Good communication down the line from the senior management is an added advantage! An excellent place to work as an engineer, an equally bad place to stay long for the support functions viz: IT, Finance, Facilities, HR, etc. It has a good compensation & benefits design and is well appreciated by the employees. Long term benefits like stock grants, stock purchase plans and the short term benefits like insurance, fitness subsidy, flexi hours are popular and well utilised by the employees.

Cons

NVIDIA seems to have a tough time attracting and retaining talent and needs to invest more time & money fixing this. A really really bad place to stay long for the employees representing the support function. Decision making process is highly centralized where managers are required to take approvals from outside at every stage of the decision making cycle. Career opportunities & growth is another area of concern where NVIDIA needs to invest sufficient time. NVIDIA also has the reputation of having immature managers accross functions who refuse to take responsibilities, react to feedback defensively, are least innovative & are at times biased! Reward for performance needs to be relooked at.

Pros

NVIDIA has some of the best talent in chip design industry. The work environment is full of energy. Strong focus on engineering - so as an engineer, you form the core of the company. The management is mostly honest and transparent. Very little b****s*** from management. Even senior people are hands on.

Cons

The schedule tends be quite hectic. Expectations are high and sometimes unrealistic. Fun mostly is absent from work. You come to office, work, go back home, work. No office outings. Sometimes work tends to get repetitive and boring.
