Pros

Compensation is as per market standard.

Cons

Expectations from employees are too much. Unrealistic deadlines. More importance to relationship than work. Management driven organization. Good to work in this company, if u have some friends/relationship as manager. Managers Expect to work from 8am to 10pm

Pros

Challanging and inovative work. It is a great place to work with nice and helpful people. The company has a strong corporative culture focused on inovation, agility, integrity and quality. Based on this strong culture the company is doing well and going beyond.

Cons

As any big company you need to deal with some bureaucracy, which makes thing not to be as fast as small companies and startups. But given the proportions, the company is pretty agile among the giants of EDA.
