Cadence Design Systems Application-Engineer reviews

The people and culture is very positive and comfortable. Even with complex issues to solve, we all can laugh and feel community---very open and natural---supporting culture. Everyone is focused on getting the job done so there is a great level of trust when it comes to dealing with personal matters and time off. Incredibly smart and helpful engineers make for engaging work. Great place to work if it is to raise a family or somewhere where you can run with your career.

The work is challenging, good opportunities for mix of customer-facing and technical jobs. The industry is very high-paced and interesting. This is a fast-paced work environment where you get good experience, and you either learn to either sink or swim. From a technical standpoint the code is a complex product to develop, manage, and deploy for customers. In terms of working with customers, these are all business customers, and they are smart and will keep you on your toes. The sales process is very interesting, and you can engage with a wide variety of customer types that all have different styles. So, basically, there is a lot to learn from working here.
