      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      I like the color purple..so thats cool.

      Cons

      If you are interviewing for this company RUN! I came on board through the Ansys acquisition and Synopsys has continuously ruined every good thing that existed at Ansys. Senior leadership has horrific communication skills, they have no long term vision, and they consistently say one thing and do another. All of this on top of layoffs, creates the most miserable work environment full if uncertainty and anxiety.

      Current employee
      Salt Lake City, UT
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Pay is not like a typical Tech company. Pay is on conservative side. Was an employee of Ansys before acquisition. Job was stable that was the upside. Also, Ansys gave opportunity for Mechanical Engineers like me to work as a developer without having a strong CS background.

      Cons

      The future at Synopsys after acquisition looks shaky. There is no job security anymore.
