fast paced cutting edge chip design with no rest for the weary. - Avis employé Engineer NetLogic Microsystems

This company is a collection of very talented individuals from many renown big and small companies. Great place to enhance your professional carrier. Good upper level management and very good road map.

More work as individual, more responsibilities and expectations compare to big companies.

- Salary was decent for me, as was RSU component - Office building is nice - Project road map is solid, at least for the short term - Opportunity to gain experience

Many of the senior engineers from the RMI days have already left, or they have simply checked out, waiting for their RSU/options to vest. What remains is under experienced engineers and managements. Project management is largely ad hoc and there is very little (if any) technical leadership. The issue isn't talent, it is the undue stress on employees caused by short development cycles, poor management, ego's driving technical decisions, etc. One can spin this as being a company with a start up feel, but I see it as undue stress on employees. - Limited opportunities to move to management - Small (basically single person) team leading architecture of next generation chip. - 4 years vesting period of RSU (I am not sure what is average in the industry, but could be shorter) - No 401K matching
