Pros

Flexible, culture, great people!, Family like enviroment

Cons

Pay is very low when compared to other companies. They (NI) seem to "weed" you out after 8 years of service. I worked there for 10 years and was laid off less than a month after getting my 10 year plaque. I know several others who would agree.
