Pros

Work here for a couple of months. Helpful colleagues, work level normal with some peaks (nothing out of ordinary from my point of view), overall good culture. Company being spread across different time zones means working from time to time in early morning or late evening.

Cons

Not discovered so far, it is too early to tell. I do not think there are major problems.

Pros

Working at home is an option for many

Cons

The review process is a joke. The common phrase around the building is "the harder you work, the harder they kick you in the nuts." There are chances to grow within the organization, but first dibs go towards the friendly people that spend more time chumming it up with their boss than people that do the actual work. Things aren't as horrible as they were during startup, but they will never be as good as the more popular companies such as Intel or AMD. But I guess it's better than working for TSMC, because they only yell at you half the time.
