Pros

great "soft landing" into working environment for college grads, company training is really good, free software certification exams, tries real hard to take care of employees

Cons

low pay, not a lot of moving around options from applications engineering. You rarely get what you want, and are forced to go where there is space. The skills learned during AE are much more valuable elsewhere.

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.
