Pros
- Free breakfast and free lunch 2 days out of the week - Chill coworkers - Interesting work and plenty to do - Fun offsite parties and relaxed atmosphere
Cons
- As of mid-fall 2022, it was clear that the funding would no longer be rolling in (maybe things have changed, but there were quite a few layoffs, so something is amiss) - Constantly relying on weekend work with often last minute solutions and little to no planning - Unclear product/ business path; Didn't seem like most people in charge had strong experience in automotive at all and how to market the eventual product to OEMs/ customers - Unique feature base and offerings don't really do a great job at differentiating it from the 2 million other AV companies receiving money from VCs - Constant track switching and pivoting that was more extreme than other startups I've seen to the point where it would delay and frustrate certain projects
