Pros

People are helpful. You get ownership of your work. Nvidia is about to acquire which might open up paths to a better pay, other perks and more opportunities.

Cons

Can get hectic, mostly will. Don't expect a good work-life balance. Pay could be a little better for low grade employees. If you're not from an Electronics background, you may not excel here.

Good Employee Benefits & Work Life balance; but uncertainty on acquisition

Business Outlook

Pros

* Employee Benefits package extremely competitive * Package geared towards long term loyalty * Hybrid/Flexible working * Strong focus on employee wellbeing * Generally good organisational culture

Cons

* Nvidia acquisition dragging on and on * A LOT of uncertainty for some parts of the organisation due to lack of guarantee of retaining job post Nvidia acquisition * Leadership not giving anything away on progress with acquisition and what it means for certain employee groups * Operating very lean as a result without any clear end in sight, resulting in not enough people in teams to meet Leaderships expectations
