A 5000+ company trying to run as a start-up but with no start-up incentives

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

smart people to work with, very little politics compared with some other big companies, exciting projects to work on

Cons

schedule is always over aggressive and not achievable, never tell you anything about career development, almost zero cash compensation other than the salary, incentive based stock compensation is laughable for regular employees

Good, Bad, and Ugly

Engineering manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Really the best place to be if you are focused on graphics. If you love Linux work here. Huge presence in the 3D animation world. Jen-Hsun Huang is still at the helm of the ship and is an inspiring leader.

Cons

Political in-fighting distracts from putting out the best product. Not completely honest with customers/users about product defects and resolutions. Yet still dedicated to resolving those root cause problems. Windows drivers have been plagued with problems since Vista. Jensen can't be on every project.

Business Outlook

Pros

- Excellent & Intelligent Engineers - Most people work with a "my project" attitude that rubs off on others. - Great Healthcare benefits - Good scope of technical learnings - Aggressive schedules makes for fun work environment.

Cons

- Management is apathetic. Notion of moving engineers from one project to another, without any thoughts to expertise is downright ridiculous. - Poor load balancing : Wrong teams are heavily staffed - Management not paying enough attention to employee's advices. - Average-to-low salary ranges
