Pros

You get to work with NVIDIA. You get to work with some of the leading technologies in the world and with some of the smartest people on planet.

Cons

I was in QA team and as a QA I felt that there is a huge difference in salaries of QA and Dev. Also, NVIDIA should promote employees who want to learn different aspects of software development.
