Pros

Flexible schedule and interesting project but no resource.

Cons

The worst management chain compares to my previous employers. Managers micromanage, have favorite, and have no clue on how to promote innovation, team work and proper methodology.

Pros

A real technology that is making an impact on the world. Customers who can think of the development process beyond the next release understand the value and are wiling to spend substantially on the products. The SF office space is excellent and the atmosphere has relaxed quite a bit since the acquisition. Synopsys is a very 'nice' and 'stable' company.

Cons

As much as they try to market themselves as something more, Coverity is a one product company and Synopsys is doing little to change that dynamic. Since the acquisition the wind has been taken out of the sales of the company and it is unclear what Synopsys would like to do with the company/technology in the future. This ambiguity has lead to apathy and high turnover in all departments, with the exception of R&D. It is a miracle that the R&D unit has stayed intact, but that will be short lived unless Synopsys begins to make clear what their software strategy.
