Pros

The employees here are the brightest people I have ever met. I learn stuff from them every day. Also I get to pick my own projects to some extent, so I feel like I can individually influence the direction of the company, at least in my business area. I always have the resources I need to complete my work. Others are willing to help out when needed and management makes sure I have the equipment I need.

Cons

It can be hard to keep up. Development moves fast and strategies change often. Coming back to work after a week or two of vacation here feels like you've been gone for a year.

Pros

Technical excellence and engineering rigor – Working alongside some of the smartest engineers in the industry. Code reviews, architecture discussions, and performance optimization were taken seriously. Cutting-edge technology – Unparalleled exposure to GPUs, CUDA, AI infrastructure, and low-level systems programming. Truly a place where you can work on problems that define the next decade of computing. Impact – Your work ships in products used by millions of gamers, researchers, and data centers worldwide. That visibility is rare and rewarding. Leadership in AI/ML – NVIDIA is not just riding the AI wave; it’s enabling it. Being at the center of that as an engineer was professionally transformative. Compensation – Competitive salary + RSUs that have appreciated significantly over time. The financial upside for long-term employees has been substantial.

Cons

Internal mobility – Moving between teams (e.g., from automotive to gaming) was harder than promised. Managers sometimes blocked transfers.
