Pros

Synopsys is one of the most widely used IP companies in the market. With vast amounts of field-collected data, it ensures top-tier reliability. Working at Synopsys provides a great opportunity to learn from this system. However, it’s not something other companies can easily replicate, as Synopsys offers unlimited tool licenses.

Cons

Due to the highly specialized division of labor, engineers who are not proactive may end up feeling like just another cog in the machine. For some, this structure can make work easier. However, perhaps due to this characteristic, the salary tends to be relatively lower.
