      Pros

      Some of the best technical people in the industry. Other than that, I can't think of anything worth working at Cadence.

      Cons

      Witnessed several rounds of layoffs, and constant change of management, I feel the company is going no where. There are a lot of internal politics.

      Cadence has some great people and talent, they just need to get some of the old management out.

      Pros

      Cadence has very talented people and many of the teams work well together; It just depends on the manager you get. The Be One campaign is great and is moving the company in the right direction. They have fair pay and benefits.

      Cons

      Too many shutdowns and constant RIF's have caused low moral. I believe there are still several leaders in the company that manage by fear and have their own agenda instead of doing what is in the best interest of the business. Too many jobs going to India and China.
