Pros

Same or above average salary.

Cons

Everything other than Pros. Totally agree with the other NVIDIA reviewer's comment: they trick you in with 5% higher salary over others because of your talent and make you do pathetic repeating job without mercy. BTW, I personally had no pay-raise the last 2+ years and managers/directors are too busy either kissing or poking others ass to watch out for their own folks. Bottom line: RUN, DON'T STOP!!!

Business Outlook

Pros

You'll be the envy of most new graduates. You'll get to work with the latest and greatest GPUs. You'll be exposed to bleeding edge hardware.

Cons

You aren't allowed to chat on message boards at all, which is very frustrating to those of us who used to do this constantly and must now disappear from our peers during our employment.
