Business Outlook

Pros

Work at Nvidia is always at cutting edge. You will get to learn/develop on the latest technology trends in computing, especially in this era where parallel computing is everywhere and nvidia is a front runner in it. It has all the feel of a startup and you get due recognition for the work you put in.

Cons

Career growth is slow in some of the teams. Also, the excessively high pressure environment means you are required to put in extra hours every now and then. There is a lot of ego clashes as well, since the performance reviews heavily depend on how well you drove your point of view/ideas into acceptance. It is politically messy, but not so much if you are an engineer.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good compensation and benefits Friendly work environment

Cons

Core competency in circuit design is not valued. Its mostly about how well you can write scripts for the tools. The projects(in bangalore) were mostly derivatives of existing products(which were designed in santa clara). The assignments were not intellectually stimulating.
