"Great Company!"
StarStarStarStarStarRecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at MathWorks full-time for more than a year
Pros
Great work environment as a lot of great people work here, the recruiting staff does a great job at ensuring any new employees fit in with the culture. Lots of great benefits and perks like company outings, free breakfast on Wednesdays, etc. It's an organization where you don't feel like a number and aren't treated like one. The outlook is good as the company is continuously and steadily growing with no signs of... slowing down.

As others have mentioned some processes can be slow.

Pros
Outstanding organization that truly cares about its people. They care about training and ensure that everyone is treated well with amazing little benefits from fruit in the morning to free Wednesday breakfast. I was blown away by the initial training program where the company founder, Jack Little spends about 3 hours providing each new employee with an overview.
Cons
There is a definite 'MathWorks way', which may not be right for everyone. It is highly detailed and process driven.
Advice to Management
Keep up the great work. I really appreciate the open communications.

Pros
For a larger company, offers a lot of cool perks which fuels a positive culture. Leadership is transparent.
Cons
Heavily process-oriented which may be a con for some. Not having the 70% and go mindset, does force things to get done the right way.
