Pros: Within solution architecture, I have been able to explore multiple fields within AI and learn a lot. Coworkers are brilliant, and there is always an expert to ask questions to.
Cons: With solution architecture, there isn't a clear way as to what you can do next in your career. Nvidia will let you move between organizations, but there isn't a super-established path as to how you grow career-wise. Some go into business development, and some go into engineering and product.

Pros: Endless room to learn. Easy to move around. Focus on doing the right thing the right way. Small company feel. Amazing coworkers. Not overworked (depending on team).
Cons: You must be a self-starter to work here. This is a fast-paced company with projects starting and stopping often. There are a few teams with overly political management and directors who just keep failing up.
