Pros

I wish I could have found out what the pros were.

Cons

I was "hired" at Math Works a few months ago. I interviewed twice with several people. The corporate recruiter praised my candidacy, called all of my references, ran a background check, gave me my pay rate, a verbal offer, and an idea of when I would start my first day. I found it odd that I hadn't heard from the recruiter in a week, so I emailed her. Nothing. I called her, left messages, and she ignored my calls. Two weeks went by... nothing. Three weeks... nothing. You get the point. I was given a verbal offer and then I never heard from the recruiter again. Very surprising for such a large and successful company, and extremely disappointing. I would never apply for a job there again and have told friends and family about my experience so that they can avoid going through the trouble as well.

Pros

The offices are very nice.

Cons

Job descriptions are deceiving for EDG. EDG is actually just a technical support job with very little opportunity for engineering work. Technical support in EDG causes immense anxiety because of the non-stop phone calls with incredibly demanding clients. Very bad management in EDG. They lie and actively prevent employees from moving out of the program. The rest of the company uses members of EDG for free work without allowing EDG members to join engineering teams. EDG is a cesspool for new college graduates and will waste your time.

Pros

Work Life Balance. Friendly people. Good campus

Cons

No will to innovate. Too many meetings for things that can be done over email. The entire focus is to meet metrics not innovate. Archaic Work from home policy. "This is how it is always being done so let's not change it" mentality.
