Decent compensation.

Nvidia's Bangalore Centre works on the latest technologies, and there are opportunities to learn and grow technically.

If you are a geek and like slogging out for long hours, you might like this place.

Work-life balance can be very bad in some groups, particularly those doing backend design work.

Aggressive work culture. Attending daily night calls and meetings can be troublesome for many. Most people put in a lot of hours, even on weekends and holidays, setting the same standard for others.

Heavy email traffic puts a lot of stress on employees and can decrease productivity. There is no proper documentation on the complicated flows, making it very difficult for a new joiner to learn them in a short time and become productive.

Stock doesn't seem to be going anywhere; the RSUs are no match to what other top companies are paying. It used to be a place known as a top paymaster and for cutting-edge work. However, it has lost its shine in the market. Companies like LSI, Qualcomm, and Broadcom are paying more for the same talent. Work has become mediocre; they no longer need top brains for such tasks.

The mad rush to enter the management ladder has resulted in a lot of office politics. If you do not have a good reputation with your manager, you will go nowhere in this company, no matter how good your work is.

Review the compensation of employees; you are not the king in the market anymore.

Accept the fact that there is significant attrition in the company.

Do not give unnecessary powers to the entry-level management.
