Pros

More often than not, NCGs get to experience different stages of ASIC design and develop a broad skill set. Work is fast paced and exciting. Management is usually very good about communicating future direction/strategy at every level.

Cons

To extract the most out of the job, long hours are inevitable and compensation is usually not commensurate. All bonuses are tied to the company stock.

Pros

The product security organization has a very ideal work-life balance. The culture is strong on ownership and trust. There is a good sense of pride and collaboration across teams with low level of politics and high sense of "the project is the boss". Compensation is good for the roles. Merit increases and promotions are mostly transparent, but can vary from manager to manager.

Cons

Leadership direction can be whiplash at some times. Some initiatives feel directionless, while others feel misguided. Leadership does respond to push back and listens to employees though, but it often feels like managing up.
