Pros

Smart, self-starting co-workers make the job easier. Things get fixed and soon, generally speaking. Issues are settled on the merits. Now, sometimes the winning argument is schedule or lack of resources, but it's still a "winning argument" and not a political win. Open and honest, no unspoken agendas allowed. This probably means in practice that unspoken agendas are just more rare! Still, all in all, a very good culture.

Cons

It still can be a little bit hard to strike the right work-life balance. Pay could be better and the rumor is that it is better at one or two of our competitors.

Pros

Management is competent and actually cares about employee welfare. Jensen is the least sociopathic CEO I've ever worked under. The work has been interesting and I was actually allowed to do things right, and not just "right now".

Cons

The company is 3X the size it was when I joined, with all the usual problems of massive growth. And of course the AI hype at Nvidia is intense.

Pros

NVIDIA's PTO and Sick policies are compassionate and generous. Managers listen to employees' ideas. Employees get to work on a wider variety of projects than expected, and usually work closely with other teams to get things done. Collaboration is tight almost all of the time.

Cons

Employees don't always get insight into why they were assigned a particular project, or have much if any choice about what projects they get to work on. Managers are often too busy working on projects themselves to have the free time to meet with employees on a regular basis. This leads to short-term, reactive thinking rather than long-term visionary thinking.
