Pros

Great snack cabinet and lunch served everyday Company is based on a solid idea (no more) If you can get in with the CEO and his wife your safe

Cons

Terrible communication and incredibly poor management. Many teams are left to flounder with no direction. Micromanagement from executive leadership leaders leads to stagnation. Founder believes he is smarter than everyone in the building. He once said "I have employees, because I don't have enough time to do that work". They do not respect you or believe you offer unique abilities to the company. Progress is slow, the tech barely works, company makes product promises it can't deliver.

We appreciate you sharing your perspective. At PassiveLogic, we hold a high standard for how people work together and engage with one another—grounded in respect, professionalism, and direct, principled communication. Our teams operate as one without silos or gatekeeping. Ideas are challenged on their merits, and decisions are made through clear reasoning and data. That approach requires people to engage directly, take ownership, and contribute to a shared outcome. We are building a deeply technical platform at the intersection of AI, autonomy, and physical infrastructure. The work is complex, the expectations are high, and the environment is intentionally rigorous. It’s a strong fit for individuals who want to think from first principles, engage deeply with hard problems, and be accountable to results alongside a highly aligned team. We’re building that team. We wish you the best moving forward.

Pros

This is one of the most unique professional experiences I’ve had. The company was built around a very ambitious vision for physical AI, autonomy, and real-world systems. I came to work here for Troy Harvey's vision and principled approach to design. It was inspiring to work with him, and the mission drove me to work hard to achieve amazing things. I hope to continue to work with him in the future. What stood out most was the ability to connect hardware, software, AI, product, and customer value into one coherent direction. That kind of systems-level genius is rare. And his type of leadership uniquely collaborative leadership hard to come by. The work was meaningful because it felt like we were building something genuinely new, and we were doing it together as a team with a set of focused goals. The best part of the culture was the exposure to big ideas and high expectations. If you wanted to grow, learn, and be challenged, there was a lot of opportunity.

Cons

The pace and expectations are intense. Communication could sometimes move quickly if you aren't paying attention because the company and the ideas were operating at a high level of complexity.
