Pros

In one word, Learning. You will get to learn a lot here. The best system software engineers with more than 20 years of experience are just a call away. You can ask anyone anything no matter how stupid your question is. People are helpful and straightforward. Work culture is challenging but equally rewarding if you can overcome those challenges. Other pros - Flexible Timings No dress code Free Food Work from Home Discounts on various Nvidia Products Good Comp

Cons

You really tend to miss out a bit on life while working here. Spending 10 hours a day is easy given the work one has at Nvidia so the only time you have to go around and have some fun is the weekend. Cons - Work Life Balance Senior Management needs Improvement Slow Growth Limited Exposure(Graphics) makes it difficult to switch Monotonus office life with little or no fun activities Only one common playing area with one TT table, a couple of carom tables and a couple of foosball tables for more than 8800 employees!

Pros

Fantastic work culture, great work life balance. People are genuinely excited about what they are working on and the projects are cutting edge. Unlimited tokens (for now at least). Flexible hybrid policy, and easy to take PTO. Leadership is very forward thinking, for a large company there's a lot of sense that employees matter. No layoffs in almost 20 years. Food is pretty good and subsidized. Great benefits, and competitive compensation especially for hardware roles.

Cons

Only minor gripes - currently no gym, and the parking is very limited at HQ. This is being addressed, but won't be completed until 2028. Company has been growing faster than the offices, so there aren't enough desks for everyone. Slightly inconvenient when you can't get a temp desk where you need, but most of the time it's no problem.
