      NI's R&D is a good and reliable place to develop knowledge, skills and experience, but it develops people very slowly.

      Pros

      - R&D gives a lot of responsibility to engineers of all positions, which I find very fulfilling - Strong culture aided by no fear of lay-offs and minimal politicking - Most managers are effective and not just buzzword generators - Great opportunities to get involved in the community, especially with education

      Cons

      - Improving, but still sub-standard infrastructure - Slow advancement - Low Starting Pay - Extremely low raises - Bonuses are calculated on an expectation of 40% organic growth
