All future growth outside USA. Forced 25days of shutdown with little flexibility. Treat employees as expenses. Will lay off people with out any input from 1st level manager. They do not trust their own employees.

Senior management out of touch with industry. Internal business structure promotes political infighting and undermines team work and delivery of quality products.

Pros

I had the pleasure of working with some very smart, competent people who really cared about their work and poured their heart into everything they were doing. There were localized pockets of teamwork: some people who were very helpful, cooperative, and collaborative -- in San Jose and in global offices. In my case, the work was interesting and challenging. There were always new challenges to face. There was always new technology to learn.

Cons

Management is unfocused and top-heavy. It's not clear that the management really knows how to survive in the EDA market during these economic conditions. The general confidence level in management has been low, and has had an impact on morale.
