Pros

- HQ in Natick seems like a nice place with good intentions - Nice atmosfear

Cons

- People are threatened by management - They treat people well when they need you but eliminate you if they don’t need you - Everyone is too scared to speak up. Even before the exit interview management makes sure people don’t speak up - The smart once leave, in sales basically no one stays more than 1-2 years - MD needs to be diagnoses by medical professional - Me however, I’m stuck and desperate to find a new job. It is really the badest place I have ever been to

Strong work-life balance; reasonable hours and low burnout Smart, helpful colleagues and collaborative culture Stable company with solid products (MATLAB/Simulink) Good benefits and campus perks (food, gym, etc.)

Cons

Development pace can feel slow and process-heavy May not be ideal if you’re optimizing for fast career growth, cutting-edge tech, or top-tier compensation.
