Pros

This is a great workplace to get work life balance. One enjoys their own personal cabin. Fellow employees are friendly and easy to get along when working in cross-team collaboration. Extreme focus on process orientation helps in little to no surprises during feature rollout.

Cons

Process orientation becomes a double edge sword. With the need to get approvals from senior management and processes involved during software development make the turnaround time from idea to feature rollout very high. Salary is reasonable but not aligned with industry standards. It also varies based on product one contributes to. There is about a 10-15% difference between Engineers who contribute to Simulink (primary product) vs those to work on internal and customer facing web applications Growth opportunities are very limited. Promotions are limited by yearly caps and usually provided heavily based in tenure and less on performance With a general low risk taking mentality, product innovations are limited and technology adoptions lags behind current industry standards Micro-management is a common theme across the company which limits the freedom and responsibility on the employees There is a stark difference in how the EDG program is marketed vs the reality. Although its a great platform to get hands dirty into different tools, technology and business domains for fresh graduates, Besides a few teams, Internal engineering teams treat EDG employees with little to no importance; providing projects on legacy applications that none of their teams members are willing to take
