Good company to work at as an engineer and parent

Sr. applications engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The company considers work-life balance. You get to encounter and apply the latest MATLAB technologies every year. You have the opportunity to visit the U.S. headquarters at the beginning of each year and interact with employees from around the world. There are many outstanding colleagues, providing positive motivation.

Cons

Since the work intensity is not high, some people often fall into a routine. The organization is aging, and there is a lack of new recruits. It feels like everyone is resistant to change. Some managers have a reputation for poor communication, making collaboration and communication challenging.

Great Leadership in the US, But Bangalore Office Needs Major Improvements

Senior engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The leadership in the Natick office is very employee-friendly and genuinely cares about its workforce. Competitive salary and good career growth opportunities. The US office provides excellent amenities, including free breakfast and lunch.

Cons

The Bangalore office does not receive the same level of care as the Natick office. Poor quality of food despite multiple complaints from employees. No proper understanding of local challenges—Bangalore employees are mandated to be in the office three days a week despite heavy traffic issues. Work-life balance is affected as employees need to leave early due to traffic but are still expected to attend late evening meetings with the US team.
