Pros
  • Unique technology
  • Exposure to AI and new technologies
  • Nice immigration visa support (one of the best)
Cons
  • SW product development is a joke.
  • They want to learn by trying things out without involving outsiders who have been doing this for tens of years.
  • They have an integration mindset, which is orthogonal to product development.
  • SW is all about prototypes. The strategy is all about showing prototypes to the world so that others would get inspired and buy more GPUs.
Advice to Management

Reign in old-time NVIDIA managers (very few are good). Hire professional managers and let them head software product teams; otherwise, NVIDIA will never be able to launch successful software products.
