		What was the first EDA company name that came to your mind after reading that title?
At Forbes magazine  they rated both Mentor Graphics and Synopsys in the top 25 best companies for work life balance.
That’s quite an honor for both Mentor and Synopsys so I can say that EDA dominated the list this year.
Here are some of the factors that give Mentor such an honor:
Corporate headquarters in Wilsonville, Oregon an affordable place to live (compared to Silicon Valley) 
 Five weeks of paid vacation per year (Flexible Time Off) 
 Medical benefits 
 Dental benefits 
 401K plan with matching funds 
 Annual company picnic 
 Annual company party 
 Child care in Wilsonville from newborn thru Kindergarden 
 Gym with basketball court in Wilsonville 
 Perks for top employees (tickets to NBA, NHL, etc.) 
 Employee stock purchase plan with guaranteed 15% discount 
 Adoption program 
 Women can nurse their infants 
 Prepaid legal program
