Good for job safety, not great for personal development, pay is not great either - Software Engineer National Instruments Employee Review

Pros

Depending on what department you're in, you might get to work on interesting projects with smart people. Job safety. Work on own products instead of outsourced projects.

Cons

If unlucky, you may get stuck fixing bugs on products that are in the maintenance stage. For years. The initial salary offer is OK especially at junior developer level, but subsequent raises are unimpressive, generally not even covering inflation levels. Training opportunities are limited.

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.
