Pros

Innovative and positive atmosphere. Big emphasis on R&D. Extremely loyal and excited client base , to point of being a MATLAB cult. Successful company, YOY growth since founding. Flexibility and and excellent work life balance. Amazing benefits packages and matching program for 401K. MathWorks invests in its employees for the long term. Tons of internal training opportunities, committed executive leadership team. Cookies on Friday! :)

Cons

Not a lot of upward mobility within Sales. No flexibility in pricing and licensing models. MathWorks has a "my way or the highway" approach to negotiation which will likely cause customers to turn to competitors (they may not otherwise even consider) especially across the millennial workforce. Outdated licensing processes that aren't perceived as cutting edge in software industry.
