Compensation is poor - Product Marketing Engineer National Instruments Employee Review

The pay is way below average. New grads should not be fooled by all the hype centering around the casual work environment. Although this is true, the low salaries and lack of raises are also very true. If you truly feel you are the best and brightest, you should go elsewhere. It's easy to get promoted and take on more responsibility, but pay increases barely keep up with rising cost of living in Austin if they even occur. Also, the annual bonus is a joke...it doesn't even cover half of a monthly mortgage/rent payment.
