Pros

CEO tries hard. Lots of improvement from Fister days but still a long way to go. Great opportunities to grow if in strong business unit and caring manager.

Cons

Management do not care about people, only care about looking good. Not about how good you are technically, all about who you know and who likes you. Focus on results is good but not at any cost... Poor work-life balance, echoed by others. If in weak product line, be prepared to be the scape-goat and become a casualty of BU agenda.

Pros

I had a chance over 13 years to work with incredibly talented people for a company that at times was an innovator in EDA. During the better times there was room for growth, challenging projects and the ability to work with customers on cutting edge technology.

Cons

During our leadership changes the company suffered from poor morale, constant mergers and acquisitions led to duplication of efforts and re-orgs which were always poorly timed which was unfortunate because I really feel its a great company.
