Pros

Cutting Edge on Technology advancements Love the work Love the camaraderie in my team Proud of the work we do and the company RESPECT our CEO!

Cons

Bad recognition for your work in terms of compensation Internal politics and Favoritism Middle Managers are clueless. Not trained well for the job, they dont work smart. They work hard. Exisiting Employees who have worked for a long time are not given much importance, atleast in Pune. Focus not on employee retention Quantity work and presentations more imp to management than quality Processes and methods are not well set. New mistakes lead to new processes, but old mistakes and teachings are forgotten

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.
