Pros

The people are amazing. I've talked with a lot of different people in the company, and I have yet to have a bad experience. There's also a very healthy work/life balance. Great stock purchase plans and benefits.

Cons

NI has been doing a lot of restructuring lately, so things feel chaotic. There's confusion for who is responsible some tasks.

Pros

Good at giving opportunity to new starts to represent the company.

Cons

There is no Engineering in the ELP programme, there is no leadership in the ELP programme, and there's hardly any programme/structure in the ELP programme. If you have a technical background, this place would just make you become less and less technically competent by the day. You spend all day working on Service Request, if you step away for 5 mins - Team Leaders will micromanage you like crazy. You are expected to be on the phone all day answering/making calls like a call centre, talking about all these cool engineering things going on and missing out being part in any of it. New starts who behave immaturely being led by even more immature and inexperience Team Leaders. If you are aspired to do real engineering and put your technical skills to good use, avoid this place. They say they hire the best and brightest... if only...
