      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.

      Great for self-starters

      Applications engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great work atmosphere and culture within ELP. Ability to take on almost unlimited projects with every department in the company.

      Cons

      Management is not as transparent as it should be. If you are not pushed up, you are pushed out over time. Essentially an extended internship that boosts you to your next actual entry level job.

      I have been working at National Instruments full-time

      Systems engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The colleagues are quite nice and creative. I enjoy the corporate culture in this company. Another thing that I appreciate this company brings me is the soft skills training, which is very helpful for personal development as well. I think it is a good company.

      Cons

      You can be confused at the management structure at the very beginning, especially as a new employee. But gradually, I start to figure out the advantages of current managing structure. This can help company keep productive while value people at the same time.
