      Pros

      Great company to work for.

      Cons

      IT's current management regime is generally unhealthy for your career no matter how good you are.

      Nice place to work but a lot of politics

      Pros

      Great view across the industry, get to visit lots of different teams across the industry and see which ones would be fun to work for, who is innovating, who is just trying to get the next design out of the door.

      Cons

      Politics, Cadence is made up of many acquisitions and they don't all integrate well so this leads to competing internal teams. There are too many people not actually contributing but creating a lot of meetings.

      Pros

      Opportunity to work on latest technology. Good overall experience working across different groups and with customers. Company culture allows to experiment with different roles and technology areas.

      Cons

      At times Working with geographically spread teams could be challenging. Yearly shutdown policy doesn't work for everyone. Need to catch up with compensation specially in Bay Area
