Pros

* Smallest big tech company---much less bureaucracy * Exciting projects * Fully-remotability and working hour flexibility * Agile and passionate culture * Competitive benefits and compensation * Lovely and visionary CEO and e-staff * Open culture

Cons

* Internal tools or out-of-box setup almost don't exist---especially when comparing with other giant big tech like Google or Meta. I have to set up my own environment. It's fun to me but can be painful to many people * No annual cash bonus (RSU refresh yes) * From what I heard, internal transfer notifies the manager before the first interview with other teams * Can be very busy on some days

Pros

Technical excellence and engineering rigor – Working alongside some of the smartest engineers in the industry. Code reviews, architecture discussions, and performance optimization were taken seriously. Cutting-edge technology – Unparalleled exposure to GPUs, CUDA, AI infrastructure, and low-level systems programming. Truly a place where you can work on problems that define the next decade of computing. Impact – Your work ships in products used by millions of gamers, researchers, and data centers worldwide. That visibility is rare and rewarding. Leadership in AI/ML – NVIDIA is not just riding the AI wave; it’s enabling it. Being at the center of that as an engineer was professionally transformative. Compensation – Competitive salary + RSUs that have appreciated significantly over time. The financial upside for long-term employees has been substantial.

Cons

Internal mobility – Moving between teams (e.g., from automotive to gaming) was harder than promised. Managers sometimes blocked transfers.
