      NI is a great stepping stone

      Pros

      Flexible, culture, great people!, Family like enviroment

      Cons

      Pay is very low when compared to other companies. They (NI) seem to "weed" you out after 8 years of service. I worked there for 10 years and was laid off less than a month after getting my 10 year plaque. I know several others who would agree.

      Great Place to Start Your Career

      Senior software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      If you are a software engineer fresh out of school, you will learn a lot starting your career at NI. They expect a lot out of you, and you will get plenty of opportunities if you are willing. You will get to work on a bunch of different stuff and learn a lot. The workplace is relaxed and friendly. The work schedule is fairly flexible; that is really nice if you have kids.

      Cons

      Salary has been stagnant compare to rest of software industry. Lack of performance based bonus does not encourage one to perform better. Letting under-performing employees stayed too long on the job and getting paid as much as over-performing employee just because of tenure hurts morale.

      Pros

      Great work environment filled with motivated, helpful people. NI has great products that are truly innovative. I've enjoyed my interactions with all levels of management that I've worked with and love the NI Culture.

      Cons

      I sometimes feel like expectations are a little unrealistic but I get that we're being stretched. NI is a little lagging when it comes to salary standards but they're making changes to improve the compensation levels.
