      Pros

      Family environment. Laid back. Promote as a fun place to work with a young crowd (translations we keep payroll low and don't pay much and don't mind if you move on as your pay increases)

      Cons

      No development. Underpaid. Not developing staff means it is harder for them to move on.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      National Instruments is setup for career growth. They hire a lot of very talented, young engineers straight out of school, and have very good training programs. There are a lot of projects in development, so most everyone gets a chance to shine with some real design work.

      Cons

      There is a downside to having a lot of young engineers who need to be trained. As a senior engineer, you spend a lot of time mentoring younger people. And although most managers are very good, you can occasionally find yourself in a group with little new growth or opportunities. This can be a difficult situation - so no matter how good the company is overall, hope for a good group and manager.
