Pros

I've worked for many companies, I stayed at nvidia because it's well run, the best among the companies I've worked for. I'm only leaving because of retirement. I have nothing but good things to say about Jensen (founder / CEO) and his management practices, he treats us well and we've all shared in the company's success.

Cons

The only negative is that most of the senior people have been there for many years, and I have to believe they'll be retiring in the coming years as well. The people leading make the company what it is, and there's no way to know if whoever takes over will do as well. I certainly hope so, but it is a risk.

Pros

Management is competent and actually cares about employee welfare. Jensen is the least sociopathic CEO I've ever worked under. The work has been interesting and I was actually allowed to do things right, and not just "right now".

Cons

The company is 3X the size it was when I joined, with all the usual problems of massive growth. And of course the AI hype at Nvidia is intense.

Pros

NVIDIA's PTO and Sick policies are compassionate and generous. Managers listen to employees' ideas. Employees get to work on a wider variety of projects than expected, and usually work closely with other teams to get things done. Collaboration is tight almost all of the time.

Cons

Employees don't always get insight into why they were assigned a particular project, or have much if any choice about what projects they get to work on. Managers are often too busy working on projects themselves to have the free time to meet with employees on a regular basis. This leads to short-term, reactive thinking rather than long-term visionary thinking.
