I worked at NVIDIA for 10 years. I was lucky as most of the teams to have the flexibility for working from home. However, there still be some departments that require to be in the office to get the jobs done with flexible working hours. It really depends on the department or manager that you work for.
I believe that NVIDIA provides equal opportunity and equal pay for male and female employees. There’s no gender difference that you can drive your own career advancement but on the other hand the management will expect that you set up the job scope your own and discuss with the manager for approval. Therefore, work-life balance is depend upon how you plan your job scope.
However, although NVIDIA has grown its employees to over 10,000 people, it still act like a start up company. Therefore, there’s no systematic ways for career advancement and you have to look for opportunities your own.

My contract was very short but I liked the culture and environment of the company. I did not notice any distinction between male and female employees. A male employee and I were hired for the same project and we were paid the same. I also like the flexibility that nVIDIA provided to work from home.
Established in 1993, NVIDIA has recently been recognized for its advancement in tech because it has spent years developing the support structure for future technologies. It’s exciting to work for a company on the cutting-edge of technology. NVIDIA has flexible hours, great benefits including incredible employee stock options.
I am at a regional office and we have a nicely diversified group. The ratio of men to women is skewed more toward men, but women are treated fairly and offered equal opportunities. The work atmosphere is great and I’ve grown to regard my co-workers as family. My complaint is that there is not much room for me advance and I am often not considered for any new opportunities. This is not due to me being a woman, there are just not that many opportunities available for my skill set as I am an artist, not a programmer.
Several reviews on this site indicate that NVIDIA allows people to work from home. My position does not allow me to work from home due to protected non-disclosure projects.
NVIDIA is an amazing company to work for and I feel very blessed to be a part of this company.
I have worked at NVIDIA for over 16 years. Over the years, the project schedules have been pretty intense, though for me it has not been constant. If the schedule calls for it, the flexibility of being able to work at home is a big plus. I believe the pay is fair, and if advancement is wanted, it can be achieved by taking on more responsibility.
I’ve been in NVidia for more than 10 years. Pay wise, I don’t think there is any inequality between two genders. However, I feel in some groups, there are still bias towards women especially in senior management positions. In terms family friendly, although the overall workload is heavy, but NVidia does allow the flexible work hours.
I worked at nVidia for 9 years in a few QA Groups. I must say it was a great environment and women and men we’re given equal opportunities towards advancement provided they worked towards it. It is a fast paced environment but from my personal experience, it was family friendly, when sick, the ability to work from home and dog friendly, provided your dog was obedient. While there, I was also able to go back to school and as long as my studies were towards my field and I maintained no less than a B average, the company covered a large percentage of my student debt. I must say nVidia was a favorite work place.
This has got to be one of the worst companies for which I have ever had the pleasure to work. From a pure work standpoint there was little direction or guidance on getting started, the job, once I began, was not what it was described, and even attempting to accomplish that which I was identified was actually impossible due to internal political conflicts and blatant sexism. It was shocking.
Working for 4 years at Nvidia, I find equal opportunities for both men and women here. Pay is competitive and not biased by gender. You can drive your own career advancement with support from your manager. Most of them are very supportive indeed. Work-life balance is something which you completely control. Its better to tell when it is too much for you than to work too much and spoil your personal life.
Definitely a very good place to work for women!
I worked there for a while, and I was amazed at the flexibility provided to both men and women. NVidia has an impressive commitment to working from home, specifically in a way that isn’t a career killer, but both men and women on my team took months or years working from home after the birth of a child without missing a beat! The ratio of men to women is still really skewed (as is sadly standard in hardware companies), but I never had any negative encounters with anyone, and never felt like an outsider even though I was on a HPC focused team instead of the dominant graphics-and-gaming focus of many teams. Easily my favorite workplace I’ve been at out of about 5, and certainly the only one where I never encountered sexism at any point working there!
Very diversified working environment. Female employees get equal or some times better opportunities than male employees. Very high speed company culture, intensive workloads so hard to have work life balance.
