Pros

cafeteria, not stressful, individual office, very open approach towards code repositories and documentation

Cons

* Low compensation -- they don't pay much, especially for experienced roles * Old stack -- desktop-first approach to building software, and almost everything is based on MATLAB, when the entire world is moving towards web application and microservices. Concurrency is an afterthought. Your career as a software developer will end up nowhere * Old and broken infrastructure -- things that you depend on break all the time, build is very slow, relies on decade-old tools that barely anyone still uses * Average WFH policy -- forces us to come in 3 days a week, saying it is "following industry leaders". MathWorks is known for its WLB but I guess that can be ignored for now. * Things move very slowly -- people talk about things in months and releases instead of days or weeks * Lack of ownership -- people don't take up responsibility when things go wrong * Do everything like a public company despite being a private company -- the company overhired and is now on a hiring freeze.
