what is the TC

NVIDIA gsg Oct 31, 2019

It’s terrible but people just get used to the norm and are happy with golden handcuffs

NVIDIA imai Oct 31, 2019

If u worried about wlb, stay at intel

On the more demanding side. Team-dependent, some chill, some grind. That’s not to say chilling teams don’t have grinders, and grinding teams don’t have chillers though

NVIDIA imai Oct 31, 2019

Would you say this is generally true? In the order of best wlb to worst wlb Design > verif > pd

Apple YEgf85 Oct 31, 2019

From what I’ve seen that is generally true

NVIDIA gsg Oct 31, 2019

Most new hires are pushed hard and hard to become a chiller

NVIDIA imai Oct 31, 2019

Is this from your experience?

NVIDIA gsg Oct 31, 2019

Yup in cpu verification

NVIDIA imai Oct 31, 2019

How are things there? How many hours on avg do u work?

NVIDIA gsg Oct 31, 2019

40-60 hours but I am young and don’t mind so it’s not an issue (probably not being productive most the time)

NVIDIA gsg Oct 31, 2019

Intense but rewarding

NVIDIA imai Oct 31, 2019

Whats rewarding?

Intel intel-guy Oct 31, 2019

Rsu refreshers is the only rewarding thing at Apple...

Intel loyalguy Nov 2, 2019

In other words, money is the only rewarding thing at Apple ? Sounds good to me

I also moved from Apple , it is hell in terms of wlb

NVIDIA dgtwexs Nov 22, 2019

Where did you move to?
