Pros

Principled leadership Market-leading products Comfortable work environment Excellent benefits Mutual respect among colleagues Lots of talent If your goals are to have good work/life balance, do interesting work, and be part of a successful company with market leading products, The MathWorks is tough to beat. But if you are looking for more than that, you will be left wanting.

Cons

Consensus-driven approach can sometimes paralyze decision-making. The Company is rigidly inflexible when it comes to working remotely in a misguided effort to maintain the corporate culture. Career development is really lacking; the better one is at his/her job, the longer one can expect to stay in that job. Some long-timers in middle-management are punching the clock.

Pros

Exciting, Dynamic work environment Great campus and resources Company is relatively stable Depending upon your job role it's a challenging place to work

Cons

Work culture comes off as arrogant Most managers think the company is the end all be all but outsiders and formers know better Hiring process is arduous at best. They take a long time to make a decision and most hiring managers have such big egos that they feel qualified candidates coming in are a threat. As a result, it takes forever for them to make a decision to bring someone in. They say they have never had lay offs - that is a lie. They did.
