      Good company with the exception of IT

      Pros

      Decent benefits, such as unlimited vacation, 401K (50% match), health insurance.

      Cons

      Cadence has been among the 'Best places to work' consistently, but anyone working in IT would simply laugh at the idea. IT(building 7) is an extremely depressing place, where employees are forced to work for inordinate number hours, with no scope for growth or improvement. IT is like a miserable island surrounded by an ocean of prosperity. The upper management has plagued the place with unnecessary politics and authoritarianism, making it a toxic work-place. It is commonplace to find certain members of the senior management yelling and abusing employees in hallways and dropping F-bombs. IT employees are also refrained from working from home, while it is encouraged in rest of Cadence.

      Pros

      Moderate management control, possible flexible hours, decent pay, depending for what.

      Cons

      Too much politics, growing nepotism. Moderate compensation, constant talk about budget restrictions. Endless performance reporting and evaluation.

      Everything depends in which group you are working and which location.

      Pros

      Best reason to work here .... if you are talking about Noida .. only reason I can thing about that its all about the North India. People have very less options here and out of that again I would say salary wise it's the best option.

      Cons

      Reasons for not to work here... there are several reasons.. 1) Policies are very old. Still Cadence has 3 month of Notice period. Can you believe guys .. 3 months.. in one way cadence are forcing you that once you join .. you can't leave this company. No other company has a 3 month notice period now a days... but it has.. :( 2) HR is worst.. they are biased .. not employee friendly ..they are manager driven. Even in case of issues with the manager, they will support Managers. Because they think if they have to stay in Cadence .. they have to support Manager. 3) Few groups are very very worst group. Working there is like making your life worst. So it's always advisable to choose group very wisely. I would say check the review first.
