Great place as a new-college-hire

Associate Applications Engineer • Current Employee

San Jose, California

January 16, 2024

Pros: Flexible schedule, WFH option (depending on role, I can't because I need a ton of equipment), good pay, good benefits, good coworkers

Cons: Slight uncertainty in job security, but this is very common in tech overall right now. You pay for lunch (~$10/meal), but it's cheaper than anything else in the area. Commutes can be long or rent can be expensive. It's hard to balance the two, but the pay compensates for the highest cost-of-living city in the US.

Pay not competitive. work is fine

Staff Engineer • Current Employee

San Jose, California

Pros: Every department is different. I can only speak for mine. Work is well balanced for now. This could change in the future.

Cons: Pay is not competitive. ESPP is very limited. Very limited stock options too. I became ADI employee through acquisition. Before acquisition, we had good ESPP purchase amounts at very good discount. They have sliced to less than half. So less scope for growth outside the base salary and bonus.
