Pros

Great culture, challenging meaningful work, great people, fun young and active employees, management is helpful and mindful to help develop individuals not just as employees but as engineers with career paths.

Cons

The pay is not competitive compared to peers-in-industry. The company has grown to the size where individual contributions are not amply rewarded, and there is little to no incentive to perform unless you are in sales. Raises are scarce as the company is continually "cautiously optimistic" with projections and budget allowances. To get paid here, you have to have an impressive resume (notable industry experience) and know how to negotiate with your manager. NI makes for a great first and third job.
