      Great for engineers!

      Pros

      The work environment is great at MathWorks for engineering. I've read other reviews that say you have to "drink the kool-aid" in order to succeed. To them I would say, "oh lighten up". If you are a good engineer and you are excited to solve cool problems and can work well with other people, then MathWorks is a great place to work. If you are a cynical uber-nerd with a chip on your shoulder and you constantly roll your eyes every time you hear the phrase "core values", then no, MathWorks is not a good fit for you (nor will any other company be, you will find). The salary is not the best, but it's probably in the top half of comparable companies. The perks are great. The owner (it's a private company) is super generous. Plus it's MATLAB! It's cool to be a part of that.

      Cons

      Your mileage will vary based on who your manager is. I'm in a great group, but I know there are other managers who are not as good (I worked for a couple).

      Stable and longterm view on growth.

      Pros

      Stable and fair. The company takes care of the employeers. Your career development are taken seriously and is documented. The opinion of your co-workes that your interact with have a part in your opportunity for growth and promotion. The company culture is very open and horisontal. Access to upper management is very easy.

      Cons

      There are sometimes too many processes. Things do not happen over night. You have to be patient and wait for changes. it should not take that long to inforce changes. The decision making within the company is too centralized. The different culture differences in other countries is not taken in to consideration when changes are made.
