Pros: Competitive salary, great work-life balance, interesting work, good benefits, and excellent campus.

Cons: Mechanical Engineers in this role focus heavily on heat transfer and CPU/GPU thermals. For a recent graduate coming out of school, this doesn't provide the same breadth of experience other jobs might.

Pros: - Nice people. Most are willing to help each other out. - Exciting industry, with fun events, announcements, and changes. - Products are still competitive from a technology perspective. - Austin campus is pretty.

Cons: - Layoffs. Some people leaving. - High-wall cubicles sort of prevent open communication. - There is a sense that this company will never be what it once was. This creates a bit of apathy among the employees.

Pros: I was hired as an intern and was immediately placed on a team that helped me transition into the working world. As soon as I grew accustomed to the various software interfaces, I was able to meaningfully contribute to the projects my team was working on. Positions often lead to decent upward and lateral mobility if searching for a different position within the company. Overall, the people I worked with were very warm, and I had a great time working here.

Cons: The cubicle structure of the office lent itself to a more secluded atmosphere. I had no problems over the length of my internship term (~3 months).
