Process
I applied online. The process took 1 week.
The interview consisted of direct questions, classic HR topics, and personal motivation. There was no technical content or professional depth, but rather a focus on career background, expectations, reasons for changing jobs, and overall personality.
Questions
Was there a particularly challenging situation in your daily work routine, and how did you handle it?

Best Company I've worked for
Senior Engineer • Current Employee
San Jose, California, United States
September 20, 2019
Pros: I've worked for about a dozen companies in my career, from startup to established, small to large, and NVIDIA is by far the best company I've worked for. There's a mindset of frankness and intellectual honesty, a sense of shared purpose and values, and a culture of work/life balance and of giving back to the community – volunteering, charitable giving, etc. The company continues to excel, despite many bears and naysayers, and the benefits of success are shared nicely amongst all employees.
Cons: For me, there are no cons to working at NVIDIA.

Open-culture, flexible, hassle-free workplace!
Senior Engineer • Former Employee
Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
December 11, 2012
Pros: Flexible working hours.
Work from anywhere based on the situation.
Managers are hassle-free.
Independently deliver your tasks.
Sense of ownership.
Infrastructure (facilities, local IT support, etc.) at par.
Shuttle and food (lunch) service is FREE.
Cons: Compensation is based on which group (engineering, software, hardware, IT) you belong to. In my experience, IT receives the least budget for compensation. Your manager is the boss, responsible for making or breaking your career.
