Pros

I eventually got paid. The location is good.

Cons

Despite promoting work/life balance throughout the interviews, there was no work life balance. Despite interviewing just two weeks before starting, I worked on nothing that was discussed during the interview. I was personally berated for over 30 minutes by a project manager in my first week there. This type of behavior is acceptable there.

Pros

The company has strong technical products and many talented engineers. There are opportunities to work on meaningful engineering and verification challenges, and I had positive technical collaborations with several strong engineers.

Cons

Employee experience can vary significantly depending on local management. In my experience, feedback and escalation did not always feel transparent or actionable. I would encourage future employees to pay close attention to how expectations, performance concerns, and speak-up issues are handled in practice. Company culture should not be judged only by perks, free food, snacks, or friendly messaging. Core values like ethics, integrity, and speaking up are truly tested during difficult situations — when there is conflict, disagreement, or concerns raised about management behavior. That is when employees see whether values are truly lived or mostly written on paper. I would also be thoughtful about employee surveys. Even when surveys are described as anonymous, discussing results openly at a small-group or team level can make employees question whether their feedback is truly protected. If people feel comments can be traced back to a small group, they may stop being honest.
