Pros

Best work culture, great work life balance. The overall salary looks less as compared to some other giants in the Boston area but we get quarterly performance bonus which makes up for it. The bonus is quite sizable. The company is a billion-dollar software company with a startup culture so you get best of both worlds.

Cons

Work can get monotonous after a while. Not much avenues to explore specially for a software engineer.

Pros

Get to work on a project from end-to-end Book clubs to enhance your skills Indoor games and Gym Cab service

Cons

Anything and everything is slow at MathWorks. An example is two of the pros mentioned above, Gym and Cab Service are provided in 2017, the 9th year since MathWorks was established in India. Hire Postgraduates and above for Technical Support. Let them rot in technical support for 1.5-2 years, thereby ruining their career prospects. Bad food for lunch, started in 2017 as well. Projects progress at slow pace because of reviews with multiple layers of management. No real interaction between project owner and end-users. Two end releases of MATLAB per year causing too much pressure for quantity over quality. No work from home. HR folks do not bother about employee needs in India. If there is a need for something, they check if it is provided in the US office to decide if we have to provide it here. The benefits differ a lot between the US ofc and India ofc.
