Pros
  • Great pay for the industry
  • Great employee culture and team cohesion
  • Lots of growth potential
  • Generous stock grants and stock is growing quickly
Cons
  • Chronically understaffed, and pressure to work long-ish hours to deliver
  • Perks are dwindling to get ready for IPO, and free meals and coffee on tap are gone
Advice to Management

BD cannot keep going after so much. Anduril is winning a lot of contracts and we cannot hire enough people to cover them. We're playing whack-a-mole and it's not sustainable.
