Pros

Great HQ campus in Natick (facilities, gym, cafe,...) Good work-life balance MATLAB is used and respected by millions across the world Technically-oriented company (what did you expect with the name MathWorks) Aims for average pay, but has good benefits Slow but steady on business side

Cons

Very process-oriented which can get frustrating at times (some decisions take forever to be made) Founder still involved in the details

Pros

The company places a strong emphasis on continuous learning and professional growth, with clear encouragement for employees to develop their skills over time. There are frequent, fun company events that help build connections across teams and contribute to a genuinely friendly and collaborative culture. Overall, the organization takes a very staff-focused approach, prioritizing employee well-being and fostering an environment where people feel supported and valued.

Cons

With a globally distributed workforce, it can sometimes be challenging to coordinate schedules or connect in person with colleagues.
