Pros

Good pay, benefits, and the company is financially sound

Cons

The management in some areas specifically around the Applications teams leaves a whole lot to be desired. They are more interested in covering the fact that they are relatively inept than trying to work on issues or solve problems and are known throughout their teams to take credit for the work of the individuals. If you have any sort of personal issues or disabilities, the company does not seem to care. They send out surveys and ask for honest feedback, but when you give it, it can be held against you.

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
