      How are promotions handled at NVIDIA?

      NVIDIA reviews

      High pay, high pressure: a prestigious job that comes at the cost of burnout

      Software engineer
      Current employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Stocks Compensation is ok Prestige Vacation days Remote work Benefits - healthcare & presents

      Cons

      Constant push for “speed-of-light” and features increase, with no regard to the team’s capacity. A lot of pressure, causing stress & burnout. Work/life/war balance is not great. Only respecting workers' mental health on paper, and not in reality, ignoring burnout. Lack of possibility to provide feedback for managers and/or team members. A performance review takes up a third of the year. Slow career growth, the promotions are based only on years worked and managers opinion, not on actual performance and impact. Toxic corporate culture and communication. Micromanagement. Normalized working sick, working on weekends or holidays. Fear of higher management and hiding issues. Lack of planning. No team culture, feeling isolated. Lack of visibility of impact due to the huge scale of the project. Repetitive and routine tasks. Old tools for code & task management. A lot of proprietary knowledge that won't be needed anywhere else. High requirements for new hires, complex and not optimal hiring process, frequent hiring freezes. Too much reliance on AI and its impact on productivity. Political neutrality.

      Great pay and remote work flexibility

      Strong work-life balance but inconsistent leadership direction

      Senior software engineer
      Current employee
      Austin, TX
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      The product security organization has a very ideal work-life balance. The culture is strong on ownership and trust. There is a good sense of pride and collaboration across teams with low level of politics and high sense of "the project is the boss". Compensation is good for the roles. Merit increases and promotions are mostly transparent, but can vary from manager to manager.

      Cons

      Leadership direction can be whiplash at some times. Some initiatives feel directionless, while others feel misguided. Leadership does respond to push back and listens to employees though, but it often feels like managing up.

      Pros

      Interesting and Kind People, Mobility, Growth Opportunities
