Nvidia

There are tons of extremely intelligent people to work with. NVIDIA offers decent compensation. It's not quite as glamorous as Google, but offers standard benefits including full health benefits and decent stock option benefits with a faster vesting schedule than other companies I've worked for. Also, NVIDIA provides employees with all the latest cool computer toys you could possibly imagine – obviously, high-end video cards, but also gorgeous monitors.

There are a lot of people here who work very long hours, and if you aren't careful, you can easily end up burning out. The company doesn't do 401k contribution matching, which I was surprised to find out. Parking is kind of difficult sometimes at the Santa Clara office because of how many people we have in our offices.

Keep kicking ass and taking names!
