Pros

The employees here are the brightest people I have ever met. I learn stuff from them every day. Also I get to pick my own projects to some extent, so I feel like I can individually influence the direction of the company, at least in my business area. I always have the resources I need to complete my work. Others are willing to help out when needed and management makes sure I have the equipment I need.

Cons

It can be hard to keep up. Development moves fast and strategies change often. Coming back to work after a week or two of vacation here feels like you've been gone for a year.

Pros

Great environment to work in. Bright people, good spirit, cool attitude. Very interesting tasks and topics assigned to work on. Very prominent company, broad recognition, good reputation. Innovative mindset, novel ideas are honored and encouraged.

Cons

A bit too fast paced at times. Values and culture prominently communicated, but not all of management is following it themselves. Very US centric, international offices are sort of behind w.r.t equipment, benefits, processes etc.

Pros

Lots of smart people to learn from. NVDA used to be notorious for its stringent recruiting and interview process. During the last depression 5 or 6 years ago there was a lot of unemployed engineers in the Bay Area and employers could afford to be picky. NVDA was taking the full advantage of that. These days unfortunately the bar is slipping lower. Still the bulk of the cadre hired in the last 6 years ( and that's 90% of the company ) is a very smart gang. To stay level with their colleagues, one has to actively work on maintaining high level of competence.

Cons

It can get pretty stressful at times.
