Pros

@MathWorks EXEMPTING the HYD office: Lot of learning, excellent peers @ Natick, very friendly and approachable managers;

Cons

@MathWorks HYD office: Senior management at the HYD office is the worst. Neither they respect nor recognize hard work. They show a lot of favouritism. Unrealistic deadlines, no proper planning, and they indirectly force people to work long hours by loading them with more work in a short period of time. They do a lot of micro management. Many of the managers show bad attitude and are not at all supportive or empathetic towards their team members. The managers lack professional ethics and any administration skills. Well, HYD office was a startup at HYD acquired by MathWorks. This is definitely one of the worst decisions that the CEO has made. The sr.management at HYD office don't lead by example. They maintain the "do as I say" mentality. They advertise MathWorks core values but never follow. It never reflects in their day-to-day activities. Be it be any company outtings or providing snacks, milk, and beverages to the employees, they always buy the cheaper ones in the market and doesn't care about the quality of the items that they buy and how it impacts an individual's health.
