Pros

MathWorks provides a collaborative and intellectually stimulating environment where employees are encouraged to share ideas and continuously learn. The company offers excellent benefits, including generous health coverage, a strong retirement plan, quarterly bonus and flexible work arrangements. Each employee has their own office and buildings are very nicely maintained and very clean, Work-life balance is highly valued, and management is supportive of personal and professional development. The company culture emphasizes respect, diversity, and innovation. Additionally, MathWorks offers free breakfast and lunch, as well as complimentary on-site gym services, which contribute to a healthy, energized, and positive workplace atmosphere.

Cons

While MathWorks offers many benefits, the pace of work can be demanding at times, especially during product release cycles. There are often a lot of changes happening simultaneously, which can make it challenging to keep track of priorities and adapt quickly. Some teams may experience limited opportunities for rapid career advancement, as the company tends to have a relatively flat organizational structure. Pay is relatively low when you live in Massachusetts where everything(housing) is so expensive.

Pros

- Not like other tech companies. I find my job engaging and challenging, but I don't feel like I've had to sacrifice my wellbeing to enjoy the benefits of working in tech, - Great community. My coworkers are kind, respectful and genuinely affable. - Private office space helps with focus - Outings and social activities with the team - Coordinated volunteer days, and good community investment.

Cons

- Strict in-office policy. Even though we all have the tools necessary to work fully remote, doing so long-term is rarely a possibility. I have known more than a handful of people who loved this job but left because they could not get long term remote work approval. - Office location is less than ideal, for my preference. I would love to be able to get to work by foot, bike or public transit, but the office location is quite car centric. If there was a city office, it would make this job actually perfect. - tools could use some modernization
