Process
Do not interview here. It's a scam factory waiting to blow up. The interviewers didn't know a single thing about the company.
The recruiter did not reach out at any point in the process, which is utterly bizarre. Believe the other reviewers.

C3.ai Work Experiences
2.0
Good pay and coworkers. Culture could be better
Software Engineer • Current Employee
Redwood City, California, United States
January 5, 2025
Pros: Smart coworkers, competitive compensation, a nice office with an excellent in-house kitchen serving lunches.
Cons: Culture & morale in engineering has seemed to take a dive. Leadership has been mostly focused on hiring in the sales department. Engineers and PMs have been leaving engineering at a pretty high rate, and we're not replacing at nearly the same rate.
This results in more burden on remaining team members, which then results in more dissatisfaction and more people leaving.
5.0
Good environment and talented people to work with
Software Engineer • Current Employee
October 27, 2016
Pros: Spacious and bright working place. The open space triggers more communication and interaction between teammates.
Great and talented people around. Always learn new stuff and come up with amazing ideas.
Nice breakfast and lunch are provided every day, including many kinds of drinks and candies.
Cons: No working from home.
Fast-paced and heavy loading, but also meaning the company is growing fast.
5.0
Great environment if you know what you want
Software Engineer • Current Employee
Redwood City, California, United States
December 4, 2021
Pros: Pretty consistent hours as long as you aren't in a customer-facing role (FDE, SE).
Real chance for meaningful career progression and comp growth where low YOE doesn't matter too much, as long as you're willing to work for it and can demonstrate leadership.
A management which generally cares that you work on meaningful product and features with high visibility.
Team is built with many smart people. Highly collaborative environment.
* Free lunch
* Onsite gym
* Weekly happy hours
* Holiday parties
Cons: No work-from-home policy, largely driven by CEO. This is a big turnoff for many, but early in one's career, this shouldn't matter much.
