Native Instruments reviews about "team"

If you struggle to work within ambiguity, don't like a lot of change and prefer clear structures and a chain of command - then it may not be the best place for you right now. It's not for everyone and it probably differs depending on the role and the team. NI is on a journey and in many areas this is ongoing and iterative, it is by no means perfect and requires some patience. A lack of clear process can be challenging (unless you like to build and create it) and as with most mid-sized companies, there are not enough resources to do everything all at once; it requires most to work at a both a concept creation and a hands on level and there are no ivory towers (or corner offices) in sight!

mediocre management, especially the digital product division didn't work really well career development was lacking when I was there

No promotion culture Below average salary

No positivity left in the company, many people left! The rest is dealing with the management and constantly complaining! Real Senior engineers in the hardware team are 3-4 ! People are burnt out, and team is not healthy ! Pretty toxic work environment! No senior to learn from. People without technical knowledge have somehow become seniors with fake yearly review and can not even deal with stress!

Too many flows to understand

Intermittent layoffs and people quitting.

The company culture may not be suitable for everyone, especially those seeking a more diverse and supportive work environment. There is burnout and frustration among employees, contributing to a predominantly negative atmosphere. Many colleagues are frustrated due to e.g. a lack of recognition, insufficient resources, and below-industry-standard payment, in some cases. The workload demands can be excessive, leading to emotional distress for some team members during meetings. Although diversity is claimed as a priority on paper, middle management primarily consists of white alpha males lacking authentic diversity skills, empathy, and emotional intelligence. Some directors even promote an unhealthy burnout culture and exhibit overt, yet unintentional forms of discrimination. They are very good at talking and will talk about their own vacation and projects in your 1:1s because they see you as a number.
