Pros

* CEO is employee-centric, often strong-arming HR into implementing the policies that employees ask for. * Compensation is incredibly high, even before accounting for stock price increases. * Work-life balance is great - there is no expectation to kill yourself with work or to be available beyond the typical working hours. * Employees own their work and decide how to push it forward, and are not micro-managed ("the mission is the boss"). * The remote vs hybrid vs onsite decision is yours alone, you choose what works best for you. This is reiterated by the CEO every quarter when the question inevitably comes up. * NVIDIA has its fingers in way more pies than people generally realize, which makes for really interesting projects and inter-department collaborations. * There is virtually no silo effect, people reach across teams constantly.

Cons

* I wish I had joined sooner instead of wasting time at less fulfilling companies.

Pros

The product security organization has a very ideal work-life balance. The culture is strong on ownership and trust. There is a good sense of pride and collaboration across teams with low level of politics and high sense of "the project is the boss". Compensation is good for the roles. Merit increases and promotions are mostly transparent, but can vary from manager to manager.

Cons

Leadership direction can be whiplash at some times. Some initiatives feel directionless, while others feel misguided. Leadership does respond to push back and listens to employees though, but it often feels like managing up.
