Pros

Very stable company. Very smart people. Lots of fun social opportunities. Great company culture. Extremely collaborative environment makes a great place to work if you are willing to allow others on your stuff. I can see myself retiring there.

Cons

Unclear promotion criteria something driven by political reasons and fear of change. The company is extremely collaborative, but in some cases fails to recognize special contributors. Many review processes makes hard to innovate, but quality is prime.

Pros

Stable company, great perks and excellent work-life balance. A lot of really smart people with diverse interests. Very friendly environment.

Cons

Not much gets done in this organization. Everything requires 20 meetings and 30 follow-ups and 40 post-mortem reviews. I am impressed at how smart people get into this rut of putting process over results. My suspicion is that MathWorks is now such a big company that it is hard to know the where the money comes from. As a result, it is impossible to correlate action to results.
