There's no heart left at NI - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso National Instruments

When Dr. T retired in 2017, the heart left NI. The new CEO is very focused on the bottom line at the expense of the employees. Layoffs of people seemingly selected at random, truly inexplicable reporting structures implemented, and a change in retirement policy that robbed 20+ year veterans of the company of a huge amount of their retirement. It's truly sad to me to see such a lack of respect and appreciation for people who spent their entire careers at NI. Pay is dramatically lower than industry norms. The management team hodls quarterly town halls saying they are "looking into" the benefits and compensation packages, but nothing ever changes. A few years ago they raised the entry level vacation accrual by a week but didn't cascade that increase to employees who had already reached that level, so it basically penalized people who'd spent several years at the company.
