Pros

MathWorks is sort of a unicorn of the tech industry. The focus is heavily on the engineering side of things and employees, especially the engineering ones are well taken care of! Being a private company allows them to make every effort to build a culture that employees love like their own family. And the products help create a sense of pride among all. One can learn a lot here and should definitely consider as a prospective place to work and grow. - Traditions like Friday cookies and Wednesday breakfast - Sprawling campus with ample space to take stress relieving walks and tune out for a bit - Smart talented co-workers - Quarterly bonuses are an icing on the cake!

Cons

Process heavy nature can some time stifle the application of new ideas. However, that said, management has made efforts to spice things up by way of hack days!
