Pros

Everyone is passionate about music and loyal to the products. Exciting products, fun location in heart of Hollywood. Some good perks, and if wait it out opportunities will come.

Cons

This is a sales and distribution office for North America. It is not were the products are developed (Germany) so young staff doesn't get it and complains why they have no say in product development. Plus there are young people in positions because of low pay who know nothing about how to deliver good customer experience AND they have this attitude that they work for NI they can take customers for granted. Cliques are rampant and inner team cooperation poor. They are letting the millenials sink the office reputation. Just go read the Yelp reviews.

Super cool environment and amazing products that are easy to sell, cause who doesn't love music!

A lot of miscommunication and groupthink can make marketing projects spiral when they could have been more efficient by just meeting sooner.
