Business outlook
Pros
Cafeteria is good, in San Jose at least. A lot of really great people who really care, work at Cadence. Some managers are good at providing flexibility and accommodating crazy life schedules, including working remotely at times.
Cons
Way too much weight and pressure given to product release schedules, at the expense of long-term job satisfaction and product quality. Salaries are based on a 40 hour work week, but many folks end up working easily 60 hours per week and occasionally more. Benefits are average, in spite of what claims are made by HR.
