Pros

- Fast paced, engineering focused, bleeding edge oriented environment - Pleasant work culture, opinions are always heard - The technology is AWESOME! The RISC-V architecture is the future. - Openness, collaboration and willing to work with open source RISC-V oriented communities is encouraged - Payscales are very competitive - Offices are great! Free goodies, even beer!

Cons

- It's a startup environment so there is a need to move fast which may not be everyone's cup of tea - There really isn't anything that I can think of as a serious con

Good work, Bad Compensation

Pros

High quality work along with one of the best talent density

Cons

Big pay gap between India and US for comparable quality of work. The compensation for Indian employees needs to be levelled up based on performance and in general. There is no HR feedback process as well.

Working at SiFive Sucks

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Good salary But not a good trade-off with respect to the amount of work expected.

Cons

Twice the work with half the team size. Micromanaging. Terrible work life balance. Expected to work 24x7 till you die or you fall sick. Bosses would give you a call whenever they feel like.
