Process
I applied online and received an email soon asking me to complete an HR round.
Mathworks sends you a link, and you need to record your response through the software link provided. This round is quite easy, and the questions are the same ones others have posted on Glassdoor.
The second round was a HackerRank coding challenge in which you were asked to answer any two out of five sections. I answered C/C++ and MATLAB.
The C++ section had some basic questions about inheritance, etc. There were two programming questions as well.
The MATLAB section was a bit crazy. All the questions were multiple-choice type. They were simple but required you to use your memory.
After the HackerRank challenge, I am awaiting the phone interview.

MathWorks Work Experiences
- 5.0Good work-life balanceApplications Support Engineer • Former EmployeeOctober 9, 2022Pros: Good work-life balance. Good pay.Cons: New tech stacks are not used much.
- 2.0People in power protect people in powerApplications Support Engineer • Former EmployeeNatick, Massachusetts, United StatesJuly 27, 2021Pros: Nice facility, good health benefits, profit dividends instead of stock options (private company).Cons: The hierarchy of the company allows for the network of managers to protect each other and perpetuate a toxic culture. There's a big focus on process for many parts of the company, but not in terms of recourse for managers abusing their power. They are very against remote work and resisted it through COVID.
- 4.0Application Support Engineer InternApplications Support Engineer • Former EmployeeNatick, Massachusetts, United StatesOctober 2, 2014Pros: It is a very good company to work for. We get to learn social skills, like writing quick and well-organized technical emails, and speaking to customers on the phone. We also get to learn about all the toolboxes in MATLAB.Cons: Team members were helpful, but it was like micromanaging.
