Pros

Extremely laid back work place Accommodating to families Challenging and fun environment Employees empowered to do what interests them. On-site health center Nice campus Strong management at the highest levels

Cons

Pay is not competitive outside of the engineering or sales groups Horrible maternity leave policy (partially result of a dominantly male workplace) Health care/Insurance was one of the strongest points, but now decreasing (not entirely NI's fault) Despite increasing number of females, still very male dominated in management positions Job growth is primarily outside of the US

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.
