Pros
- Tackling one of the world's most exciting new technologies with the largest household name companies out there (autonomous vehicles, robots, planes, etc.) - Highly ambitious and capable leadership team with the experience and skills to make big things happen - Flexible, hybrid working environment enables people to do their best work - Competitive compensation (salary, equity, bonus) - Highly ambitious and competent executives drive overall culture of excellence
Kontras
- High growth company with offices in several countries means growing pains for international workers - Perks are generally better for US and EU employees - Lean startup comes with higher expectations for employees (most employees are older/more experienced than the typical silicon valley startup) - Culture of safety/certification-oriented engineering is not for everyone, particularly the free spirited tech folks who are used to a more "move fast and break things" mindset. -Heavy tech/R&D-oriented culture implies less resources/infrastructure for non-tech departments (there's still some catching up to do on back office functions)
