Pros
Reflex is a relatively small team thats very talent dense. Every engineer here easily outputs the work of a ten-person team at other companies I’ve worked for. Because of this there is no bureaucracy, and we move super fast. Because I've been given high level of trusted and responsibility, I've gained years worth of career experience in a fraction of the time. Leadership is deeply technical and makes good engineering tradeoffs. I think Reflex has the best business approach out of all the robotics companies. The robot is already super low cost and highly capable. Management is hyper focused on maximizing customer value - no backflips or impressive dancing. Benefits are good. I can order food for lunch and dinner on the company doordash account. Really good healthcare plan (nice bc healthcare is super expensive in NYC).
Cons
A lot of work. Long hours. Company is very frugal (its impressive how much progress they have made relative to money spent), so you aren't going to get a luxury state of the art office campus. The CTO's chair and monitors are ones he had found on the loading dock. Travel is economy seats.
