Avoid AI teams if possible - They are still trying to figure out and it’s a hit or miss from here - Staff Software Engineer Synopsys Employee Review

- AI teams work culture is hectic and sporadic. Many people left recently and some leaving due to poor middle management. - Arbitratory deadlines are set by middle management and everyone is expected to just deliver. Leading to burn outs. - Teams are geographically located in US west coast, France, India and Armenia and therefore planning is hard and people will ping you later in the night. - Work life balance: You are expected to put in more than 40 hours per week. They are very strict about it. - Communication skills are quite different. People talk over each, interrupt each other and will not waste a moment to point out your mistakes. Quite rude sometimes.
