Pros

NVIDIA is a company always looking to change and improve, which is a great thing. The work ethic is second to none, and nowhere else i've ever worked do you come into contact with so many world class colleagues. Working from home or one of many offices around the world, NVIDIA breeds a success culture, but also has an internal openness that is unlike anywhere else that I know of. Access to senior management is almost taken for granted and its not uncommon to get an email direct from the CEO to you.

Cons

Not so much of a con but advice. You need to massively over communicate as your work colleague will likely be somewhere else in the world. You cannot assume somebody else knows what you're doing. Work life balance can be a bit grueling at times.

Pros

Surrounded by extremely smart people. I mean REALLY smart people. Lots of work autonomy. Get an assignment and I can run with it with little interference. Nice facilities in Santa Clara. Freedom to explore other areas (Deep Learning, VR, etc.). Great benefits package (other than stock). First class medical, dental, vision options. Company really carers about giving back (STEM tutoring, Project Inspire). Company reworking itself and leading in very cutting edge technologies. Lots of $$ poured back into R&D.

Cons

Salary below other sites in the valley. No stock grants (ESPP available at 15% discount). Stock on the rise. Little/no direction in career growth. It’s all up to you to try and figure it out.
