Pros

There are a lot of smart people, good software. If you drink the kool-aid and buy-in to the contract, then it is probably a nice place to work, if you don't, don't even consider this company.

Cons

Glacial pace of development Very little influence due to organization structure Macintosh platform all but ignored, despite management statements to the contrary Lots of lip service to core values - not much in practice If you want to be creative - MathWorks is not the place to be
