Pros

The benefits are awesome, the people are nice, some of the senior technical staff are very helpful. The management decisions are transparent and for the most part the overhead is manageable. Low to medium stress level with good balance.

Cons

Consensus driven decisions make aggresive development impossible. Salaries and raises are mediocre. Growth opportunities are slim.

Pros

I enjoy the project that I work on. I feel like I have a lot of freedom in the technical decisions that I make.

Cons

I think the pay could be a little better. I've been at NI for many years and I hardly make more than when I was hired (of course, I was hired right before the great economic collapse of 2008 and like almost all NI employees I didn't lose my job so.....)

Pros

The people are fantastic. The opportunities are endless. You can take the chance and make a name for yourself. Innovation is encouraged as part of the NI Culture.

Cons

I'd like to see NI embrace a little more top down vision than it has now. There is a lot of consensus driving that it not necessary.
