Bangalore

Current Employee – been working at National Instruments as an intern for less than a year

ProsThe atmosphere here is very relaxed. While finishing the given work within the given deadlines is important, the place gives you quite a free hand with how you work.. The people working here are very helpful. The place features a relaxed atmosphere and shuns the cubicle culture that some other establishments have embraced.

ConsAs I interned here for a short period of time, I found no negative points..

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Bangalore

Current Employee – been working at National Instruments full-time for more than 7 years

ProsFlexible work timings. Good work life balance. Flat Hierarchy. Well-equipped in terms of tools to complete your work.

ConsVery hazy hike policy. Very poor recruitment policy. Totally under-staffed. Facilities provided are not up-to-mark

Advice to Senior ManagementBeing more clear with hike policy. Atleast filing up vacancies due to attrition. Tasks need to be more clear and efforts need to be put to motivate the folks.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
