It has intelligent engineers to work with. Most of them are open and friendly. The compensation and bonus is competitive in the industry.

As software company, the compensation is not as high as other industry software companies, like Google and facebook. In EDA, it is good. Some groups has a little more political issues than the other.

Pros

If you want a CEO that specializes is tanking the stock firing engineers, getting the company hijacked by private equity, and cheating employees out of their bonuses using magic company performance math, this is the company for you.

Cons

The company’s greatest “pros” are also its greatest “cons”
