Challenging projects, working with some very smart people on some of the largest and fastest chips in the industry, with great benefits and flexible working hours.
Some outdated tools and processes used on the HW engineering teams.
Average compensation, with very low stock compensation/equity (used to be better a few years back) unless you're a manager.
Not many free perks + employee discounts, etc., compared to other companies in the area.
No real complaints about the direction of the company in general; upper management seems to be doing a fine job. However, lower-level HW managers/leads seem to be too busy, with too many direct reports. This makes it difficult (as an individual contributor) to be heard or to have influence.
