Pros

Innovative and positive atmosphere. Big emphasis on R&D. Extremely loyal and excited client base , to point of being a MATLAB cult. Successful company, YOY growth since founding. Flexibility and and excellent work life balance. Amazing benefits packages and matching program for 401K. MathWorks invests in its employees for the long term. Tons of internal training opportunities, committed executive leadership team. Cookies on Friday! :)

Cons

Not a lot of upward mobility within Sales. No flexibility in pricing and licensing models. MathWorks has a "my way or the highway" approach to negotiation which will likely cause customers to turn to competitors (they may not otherwise even consider) especially across the millennial workforce. Outdated licensing processes that aren't perceived as cutting edge in software industry.

Pros

- HQ in Natick seems like a nice place with good intentions - Nice atmosfear

Cons

- People are threatened by management - They treat people well when they need you but eliminate you if they don’t need you - Everyone is too scared to speak up. Even before the exit interview management makes sure people don’t speak up - The smart once leave, in sales basically no one stays more than 1-2 years - MD needs to be diagnoses by medical professional - Me however, I’m stuck and desperate to find a new job. It is really the badest place I have ever been to
