Pros

CEO seems to emphasize integrity and open communication. Average work life balance.

Cons

Management did a very poor job of treating the engineering folks acquired from Cavium merger. Employees are not eligible for 2019 bonus! In the pretext of role leveling all Technical level employees' job titles above staff engineer were pulled back by at least 2 positions. At the same time all the employees in the Management level retained their respective titles. This discriminatory role leveling has dealt a severe blow to morale of affected employees.

Pros

Marvell has been a strong place for career growth for its recent pivoting to AI infrastructure, It is a great place for engineers who want to take ownership and work on impactful products. I’ve had opportunities to expand my scope over time, collaborate with talented teams, and grow both technically and professionally. Leadership is generally supportive of innovation and encourages accountability. The company compensation and benefits are competitive for the industry, and there has been noticeable alignment between business performance and employee rewards.

Cons

Prioritization and communication could be more consistent across organizations. Continued improvement in transparency and decision-making clarity would be beneficial.
