MathWorks Senior Engineer reviews

With size comes inertia. MathWorks doesn't have the daily/weekly deploys or releases you'll find at smaller/newer companies, and significant change can involve months of wrangling consensus and gathering approvals.

The company moves so slow letting process get in the way of progress and losing ground to open source. They dominate a few industries, but try and cover too much ground with tew few resources. Company has a very top down approach which slows things down further and prevents any innovation. Even the office chairs need owner approval. Company has almost 5k people and only 1 makes any decisions, simply inneficient. No career growth to be had unless you are a fresh grad. Many people seem to be here for the ease of life, but if you want to challenge yourself and grow look elsewhere. If you want to simply cruise mode your career and are willing to sacrifice growth, this is the place for you.
