Pros

Lots of smart people. People are generally very nice and not pretentious. Privately held company invests in itself: people and facilities. Great social mission. Great health insurance. Quarterly profit sharing.

Cons

No work-from-home (except for safety).

Lots of bureaucracy getting in the way of actual software development.

New hires not commensurate with experience, but all the same (same vacation allotment, all inside offices).

Follows its own drum -- the MathWorks way.

Advice to Management

Keep the on-boarding process; it's great to get all that knowledge about where the company came from. But continue to evolve and don't stagnate, losing sight of modern software development processes.
