Process
A recruiter arranged a telephonic interview for me.
It lasted about 40 minutes and covered several topics:
- C/C++: Questions on finding the largest element in an array, sorting, and similar concepts.
- Tools: Familiarity with various development tools.
- UVM and SystemVerilog: Specific questions on these verification methodologies.
- Timing Constraints: Discussion of timing constraints used in academic projects.
Questions
Also asked about previous projects and some specifications of those.

It was a great place to work for
Engineer • Former Employee
September 20, 2015
Pros: On-par compensation package with the industry. Great health benefits for family members; however, it is going to change soon as the company is focusing on cutting costs.
Very challenging projects and cutting-edge technology with innovative products.
The company is still leading the market. At least for now.
Cons: Politics, politics, and politics. If you don't know the right people, you get stuck there.
Pressure has been rising vertically in the past few years, and there is no sign that it is going down soon. Consequences? Very long working hours.

Pros: There are some very interesting projects and groups that are overall very smart and driven. These are usually in new areas with a lot happening in terms of development. Moving from one project to another is not very difficult, but may require some timing.
Cons: A lot of differences between different departments, technologies, and teams. Culture depends on the VP. Sometimes long-term strategy is not clear within the department.
