Pros

The employees are, on average, more talented than anywhere else I have worked. Nvidia products have great public exposure; it is quite rewarding to go to Fry's and see the products I have worked on.

Good compensation and benefits package: ESPP is a good way to make extra money. Stock options can also be a good motivator if you are not afraid of the stock's volatility.

Cons

The company has grown a lot for the last three years, and it starts to weigh on the dynamism and the reactivity of the company. The talent average suffers also from it.

Too many people tend to "work from home" too often, and this is sometimes frustrating.

It is tough to compete against Intel and AMD. Nvidia's success does not depend only on its hard work.

Advice to Management

Please have fewer meetings; it kills productivity.
