Great benefits, see very little in terms of job growth.

Senior software engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

They offer great benefits (medical, ESPP). You get to work on leading edge products. Flexible work environment.

Cons

Very little potential for job growth. Getting away from stock based compensation, for most of the people, just cash bonuses. Cash doesn't have the same growth potential as stocks.

Fine place to work at

Senior software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

NVIDIA has excellent products and an excellent executive management team. They take risks with new markets and products and realize that the environment is changing.

Cons

NVIDIA's software engineering org has a sub-par middle management. Lots of engineers have been promoted to management with no training and heavily rely on a "lets build yet another wheel in-house because we can do it so much better" mentality. They are also hugely focused on tactical execution where strategic focus is readily sacrificed... not a long-term winning strategy for a growing division.
