Pros

Really the best place to be if you are focused on graphics. If you love Linux work here. Huge presence in the 3D animation world. Jen-Hsun Huang is still at the helm of the ship and is an inspiring leader.

Cons

Political in-fighting distracts from putting out the best product. Not completely honest with customers/users about product defects and resolutions. Yet still dedicated to resolving those root cause problems. Windows drivers have been plagued with problems since Vista. Jensen can't be on every project.

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.
