Pros

Synopsys is run by a very good no-nonsense, prudent leadership. Over the years, company has moved significantly beyond EDA and successfully ventured into multiple areas that has fueled its growth. The quality of people is fabulous - with a large proportion of people with MS or higher degrees. The quality of work is generally very good and intellectually stimulating.

Cons

Synopsys largely plays in a niche field with 3 players. The university research in this field has dried up significantly. This has limited the number of startups. It has been rather difficult to attract young talent from top notch institutes.
