Pros

The offices are very nice.

Cons

Job descriptions are deceiving for EDG. EDG is actually just a technical support job with very little opportunity for engineering work.

Technical support in EDG causes immense anxiety because of the non-stop phone calls with incredibly demanding clients.

Very bad management in EDG. They lie and actively prevent employees from moving out of the program.

The rest of the company uses members of EDG for free work without allowing EDG members to join engineering teams.

EDG is a cesspool for new college graduates and will waste your time.

Advice to Management

Stop lying to members of EDG.

Provide lucid, actionable steps to get an engineering job outside of technical support.

Remove technical support as a barrier to becoming an engineer at MathWorks.
