Pros

Strong culture, lots of fun activities outside of work Excellent training program for folks right out of college Good career paths into engineering, marketing or sales

Cons

This has been many years since I worked there, but the pay was geared towards individuals right out of college, so it was not as high for more experienced individuals As NI grew, it lost some of its character and culture

Pros

good work/life balance, young culture, excellent job security Great place to work if you are ok having a "comfortable" salary and care only about work/life balance and job security (aka not career-driven) lots of experience/responsibility quickly, so you build lots of good experience in a short time frame; great for resume builder fun/friendly employee culture

Cons

below average salary and benefits; raises/bonuses are typically very small (<inflation) if given at all. excessive mid-level management, many of whom are unqualified and inexperienced lots of corporate kool-aid and lip service; constantly under going some new initiative or lofty goal that quickly fizzles away and is forgotten - it gets tiring trying to keep up with it all in middle of rough transition from small, start-up style company to major corporation; growing pains upper level management always talking about record quarters, record sales, record orders; yet when it comes time for raises/bonuses "times are tough, but we will focus and next year it will be better"
