Pros

Technology is cool, fun and interesting. Technical prowess is recognized by management, no matter what level of contributor you are. Very little politics due to above. Ideas and hard work is rewarded Range of technology is great so can work on different things every few years if looking for a change

Cons

Work is offered as an all you can eat buffet. Sometimes i eat too much of it. The challenge to continually win means you are always on the hunt. my personality is drawn to this but others see it as conflict

Pros

Technical excellence and engineering rigor – Working alongside some of the smartest engineers in the industry. Code reviews, architecture discussions, and performance optimization were taken seriously. Cutting-edge technology – Unparalleled exposure to GPUs, CUDA, AI infrastructure, and low-level systems programming. Truly a place where you can work on problems that define the next decade of computing. Impact – Your work ships in products used by millions of gamers, researchers, and data centers worldwide. That visibility is rare and rewarding. Leadership in AI/ML – NVIDIA is not just riding the AI wave; it’s enabling it. Being at the center of that as an engineer was professionally transformative. Compensation – Competitive salary + RSUs that have appreciated significantly over time. The financial upside for long-term employees has been substantial.

Cons

Internal mobility – Moving between teams (e.g., from automotive to gaming) was harder than promised. Managers sometimes blocked transfers.
