Pros

Great managers, technically proficient, world class design tools, used to be best company to learn and work at before jobs started getting outsourced outside the USA

Cons

Jobs being outsourced outside US, small fraction of the workforce does majority of the work, no transparency to upper management as some employees make false claims or take credit for other people’s effort, good people are being laid off or let go, working with peers in China and India offices is extremely difficult as the work culture there seems to be double-crossing and very hierarchical

Pros

Flexible work environment, above average salary

Cons

Company is very unstable after the merger of Ansys with Synopsys. They are going through a massive restructuring, and my entire team is being replaced by automation and overseas outsourcing.
