Pros

A lot of committed and talented applied scientists/ engineers

Cons

Hard to think the company is doing well given the continual redundancies Exec leadership are very incompetent and it’s very obvious that they’re very inexperienced in the job (why does a 40 person company require two CEOs?) Jumping on anything that breathes and it’s hard to know why we’re doing the work other than it’s probably to make out the company is ‘in demand’ but it’s clearly not CEO cannot articulate a strategy (probably doesn’t have one) and cannot let go of anything (delegation is a serious problem as everything has to go through him)

Pros

Talented engineers Decent middle management who knows how to motivate their teams Good compensation package Unlimited leave

Cons

Fairly clueless and tone deaf senior/exec leadership that often struggle to articulate themselves clearly or communicate clear priorities The products are cool but still making PoCs or tech demonstrators, with nothing in production after 7 years of trying. Has created a deflated/defeatist culture
