Interesting tech - The technical domains are interesting to engineers, both on the autonomy and simulation sides. It's not a normal SAAS/software company; I feel like they're working on more challenging and interesting engineering problems.
Smart & ambitious people - They hire many sharp overachievers, which creates a pretty fast-paced environment (also see cons).
Good opportunity for career growth and taking on responsibilities - The company is growing so quickly, I've seen new hires quickly take on responsibilities and rise to leadership roles.
It’s a bit of a grind. Hours are long, and the learning curve can be steep, especially if you’re new to autonomy or simulation.
The pace is pretty fast, so if you don’t have the time or inclination to keep up with the overachievers, it can be a lot of work.
Still feels a bit like a startup figuring out the right way to address employee feedback and happiness.
More can be invested in understanding areas of employee satisfaction/dissatisfaction.
Talked with the recruiter for 30 minutes after I applied to their job site. The interview was mainly about behavioral questions and gave a chance to talk about the company and the further interview process.
1 online tech round. Virtual onsite: 3 tech rounds + 1 hiring manager round. The coding questions are difficult. If you passed, it moved super fast, and you could ask for feedback when being rejected.
Interview problems are not too hard. But the overall experience is not too good (3 out of 5, I guess). In one round, the interviewer insisted that I use Python (C++ is my primary coding language). After the interview, I was told to wait for HR. After
