Pros: It's an amazing experience being an intern at MathWorks India Limited.

Cons: You will not be imposed any specific task.

Pros: The Engineering Development Group is a special team at MathWorks with the following job role: There are two aspects to the job role: 1. Provide Technical Support to Customers 2. Work on internal projects **Technical Support:** You will be working on challenging technical issues with customers. The queries from customers will not be trivial, as they would have googled and read documentation thoroughly before contacting Technical Support. This role demands you to be proficient in multiple domains. For example, to understand a problem in "machine learning," one needs to understand the theory and also how the customer is coding it. I have worked at other companies previously, and it is very rare that an engineer will interact with customers directly. In most other companies, one will be shielded within a development team, without knowing where or how one's code is being used. This role provides an opportunity to improve your technical skills, communication skills, and leadership qualities. **Work on internal projects:** Application Support Engineers can choose to work in any of the following areas: * Software development team * Application Engineering * User Experience Engineering * Quality Engineering Depending on your interest, you can switch teams after completing projects. This offers high flexibility in exploring areas you desire. These two roles will be on two-week shifts. **After EDG:** Once the ASEs become experts in a certain area, they will be transferred to that product team as a developer, QE, or Application Engineer, depending on the ASEs' interest. **About learning:** MathWorks encourages its employees to engage in constant learning. There is dedicated time allotted to read books and discuss concepts with the team. There will be ample training available to ramp up on products and technology. Engineers will travel to the US headquarters after joining to learn about the company's culture and processes. **About the office environment:** There is a good cafeteria with free beverages, tea, coffee, and fruits. Enjoy free breakfast on Wednesday mornings and free snacks on Friday evenings.

Cons: Nothing major. Work from home is not encouraged, as the work demands a collaborative environment.

Pros: Good work culture, products that touch many lives. Core values, good work-life balance.

Cons: EDG in India is quite poor. Students from premiere institutions are recruited and told they can make a career in their respective fields, but this is not true. Once a fresher joins, he/she will come to know there are no choices to make as such. There are only 5 departments and no core roles. Very few openings make transfers for EDG very difficult. Getting stuck with a support profile is the worst thing that can happen for a career, especially for engineers from top-notch institutes. Only a few technologies are helpful for a long-term career outside MathWorks. Managers from other departments recruit people from outside; even freshers are recruited, which calls the EDG model into question. People don't leave because they are left with no choice, but rather stay in EDG. During recruitment, students are not told the truth about the career opportunities.
