Pros

Nvidia has plenty of vibrant and talented employees and makes it a pleasure to work. It also seemst to have a very friendly and open environment so anybody can go and ask questions to anybody. And all led by a very passionate CEO. Middle management has become more communicative in the recent past as well. Furthermore, work flexibilities are hard to beat.

Cons

There seems to be frequent roadmap changes now and then, leaving few groups underworked and/or idle. Now that the company has become big, the chance for growth has definitely reduced
