      Pros

      Very stable job and work environment. Great place for learning and new graduates. Quite a few experienced individuals to learn from.

      Cons

      Compensation is sub par compared to the industry. Growth is slow. Work is slow. If you're competent, you can do enough in 20 hours a week and still impress management.

      A great place for recent college grads, unless you are looking for competitive compensation.

      Pros

      NI is a great place to begin your career and gain valuable technical experience. Recent college graduates are given high levels of project responsibility. Within National Instruments there are quite a few directions you could take your career, as the company does work in many different areas. In addition, Austin is a beautiful place to live, offering something for everyone.

      Cons

      The compensation at National Instruments lags behind comparable jobs. Most employees at Microsoft are in their 20's or early 30's. Unless you are on track for management, this is not a company you should plan to stay at late into your career.
