Pros

Good food comfotable life for people in pilot and consulting groups. Plus no targets. Just like priests in temple let the customer feel awed about it. Earlier mathworks was good as a lot of new ideas ..now its idol worship

Cons

Due to high revenue , lot of money spent on leizure which makes it difficult to be employable anywhere else ..

Pros

Everything about MathWorks was great (almost everything): Awesome Product Awesome People So much respect Reasonable expectations Lots of fun Interesting Work Many other good things

Cons

The salary is not that good. I'm not 100% sure though. I moved to the west coast and I hear salaries are higher here anyway and I moved to an industry which generally pays higher.
