RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEO
Pros
  • Smart coworkers who are enjoyable to be around
  • Plenty of interesting problems to work on
  • Crazy growth opportunities if you are a new grad hire
  • The kool-aid is kinda worth drinking ngl
  • The CEO has crazy aura and will likely be one of those famous meme CEOs like Elon, Palmer Luckey, Alex Karp, etc., within another ten years, which is good for your equity nowadays I guess.
Cons
  • Too much uninteresting work at times
  • Leadership tends to chase butterflies a lot, and from the frontlines it feels like there is zero commitment to a clear long-lasting vision over a 1+ year time range
  • Many teams are really in KTLO mode due to the above, but they won't be up front about it during interviewing
  • Dual-use might be a turn-off if you do not want to work at a company that is building killer drones / etc
