Altera Corp Employee

"I've worked at Altera for over 15 years. The company has solid financials and products that provide significant stability. You are highly unlikely to be caught in mass layoffs. Management is generally quite professional and the atmosphere in the company is quite friendly. Work hours are not excessive in most teams. That said, Altera's product lines have been weak vs. competitors recently, which has hurt the stock price and limited bonus and salary growth vs. peer companies. Company is likely entering a rough patch and turnover has accelerated due to the issues."
