Pros

Good company, treats employees well. Stable if not

Cons

Good company, flexible work hrs, encourages taking time off and balancing work with life. As with EDA sector, flat growth, which also means fewer surprises. Very good place if you are in hardware / electronic design; leader in EDA tools. Senior management is excellent in execution & leading the company
