Pros

There are some good things about NI. Onsite medical, cafeterias , good location close to the Domain. It's also a very low stress environment.

Cons

The culture at NI is inbred and cliquish. If you haven't been at NI for at least 5-10 years you'll be considered a noob. Don't expect to come into this organization as an experienced hire and be allowed to contribute. A majority of the middle management team haven't worked anywhere else so they have no idea what the world is like outside of NI. Upper management is sealed off from the rank and file and there is very little leadership or direction.

Pros

The people and the culture! Mostly very helpful, smart, fun loving group of employees. NI hired a lot for culture fit and that made the day to day a lot of fun.

Cons

Company vision from the higher ups suffered greatly after the pandemic.
