Pros

(comments pertain to my satellite location and my particular engineering team) Flexible work hours Good working environment on site Convenient office location Enjoy my work and fellow team members Great technology in many areas; in others, consistently playing catch-up with industry leaders

Cons

(many of these problems are common to the high-tech industry in general) "Process" seems to be a dirty word at Marvell--reinvention is preferred Revolving door in many upper mgmt positions Management by politics and relationships is common; promotion in some (many?) teams seems to depend on ethnic similarity with immediate manager Too many great engineers with lousy people skills promoted to management positions Exec Mgmt team and Board reap financial benefits on the backs of employees (shorter option vesting periods) Micromanagement at the highest levels (does the CEO really need to review every resume and offer?) Believe too much the spin in their own press releases

Pros

-high impact work, high visibility, hyped field (AI Infra) -most teams don't have daily standups like traditional software companies, less useless meetings -insanely smart employees -5 days office but management is very lenient; any small reason to wfh is perfectly fine -feels good to be here

Cons

pay could be better if compared to the big leagues like nvidia and broadcom
