Pros

Absolutely solid vision and culture Great place to start a career Cares about employee development Great work-life balance Well-defined processes and structure Stable employer

Cons

Change can be slow Industry is old-fashioned and challenging for growth Pay is not as competitive and benefits/work-life balance has not kept up to compensate for it. It's improving but revenue per employee puts some practical limits. Stable employer sometimes means that not everyone is pulling their weight.

Pros

I have no regrets working for NI. The community is fantastic, and here, work/life balance is king if you take advantage of it. -Most people you deal with are competent (in my experience) -Have an appointment? “Bye, I have an appointment this afternoon”* -Have to leave early to catch a flight? “Bye, I have a flight to catch”* -Awesome benefits: 401k, ESPP, Bonus -Deck parties, six flags -Cool (but not too cool) technologies *Results may vary based on team/manager/commitments

Cons

Everyone says salary, and while it’s true that we’re below ‘industry standard’, I feel that management is actively trying to address it (via larger raises, performance bonus, etc), and honestly the working environment is so nice I’d say it’s worth it.

Pros

Amazing colleagues, flexible working hours, lots of interesting opportunities, lots of responsibility early on if you exceed the baseline job expectations.

Cons

Pay could be higher, there's lot of constant change, official company culture has reduced in recent years.
