Pros

Room for growth and progression with management. Extremely good work environment among tech people. Highly educated and reasonable and always willing to help. Best people I worked with so far. Some reasonable leeway to work part-time and from home. Flexible hours as well. Good work culture in the sense that if someone is part-time is not seen as under-performing or any less good because of it. Other example is that the same applies if you work your hours and not more then that.

Cons

Dead end on the technical side in terms of career/salary progression. To aggressive on growth so money is all consuming and all that matters. Tech people in this company are extremely knowledgeable and reasonable but management does not listen. Change is constant, fast and deaf. Most of the time there is even no time to evaluate if it has worked or not. The Sales people/department rules everything and everyone. Not easy people to work with low levels of knowledge (of what they sell) and common sense.

Pros

Flexibility with WFH/Hybrid depending on your job/team Great starting PTO + decent sick/family time Challenging work Smart, hard-working co-workers People work here for decades because it's a great work culture

Cons

It's a software company. Cramming features in at the last minute, and requiring long hours from testing & doc to meet deadlines, is frustrating but not unexpected Benefits are just OK - lost all of my doctors when they stopped having one local insurance option If you're in R&D but not an engineer, you are undervalued for bonuses No upward path if you don't want to manage - eventually you stagnate and have nowhere to go Agile dev process is challenging for documentation and testing and is not always realistic with big projects Huge uncertainty after Synopsys buyout - I've had bad experiences with EDA companies undervaluing some jobs in the past (testing/doc] so not feeling any job security at the moment
