Pros

Cadence has very talented people and many of the teams work well together; It just depends on the manager you get. The Be One campaign is great and is moving the company in the right direction. They have fair pay and benefits.

Cons

Too many shutdowns and constant RIF's have caused low moral. I believe there are still several leaders in the company that manage by fear and have their own agenda instead of doing what is in the best interest of the business. Too many jobs going to India and China.

Pros

1. Leadership position in many segments of its market 2. For many people, ability to work from home

Cons

1. Company is too top-heavy: lots of directors and managers with no reports; 2. Since people are too dispersed -- many key people working out of their home with only an occasional cameo appearance in the office -- communications are a challenge.
