Aggressive culture, yet a lot of fun and learning

Asic design engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Relatively flat company hierarchy. No micro-management. Aggressive deadlines keep you on your toes. You are not a drop in the ocean, ability to make impact even as a fresh guy.

Cons

The same aggressive culture can lead to burn-out/over-burdening the employee. Lack of a managed, structured learning process can be daunting for many. Interaction with cross-continent teams would translate to working at nights.

Pros

-there are some smart people around you -a lot of things to learn. Good for college grad -compensation is fair

Cons

-too much politics -selfish and incompetent management -very limited opportunity for career advancement -promotion is based on how well you can please your manager, not by how much you have contributed to the company
