Pros: The pay is good. People are nice, and it's usually very comfortable overall.

Cons: Performance metrics are stupid. They insist on measuring your sprint completion rate, and your job depends on it. The problem is, this is very inconsistent. Any dependency, problem, or situation that comes up will not be very relevant to adjust the metric. Ergo, carry-overs are unforgivable to management. There are a ton of missing roles and departments. We have the budget for extravagant outings, weekly company-paid lunches, and $5k USD MacBooks, but not for an HR department. We also lack a lot of administrative staff, such as having a SCRUM master, enough DevOps, and actual resources that would improve our working experience. It's important to note all these missing roles end up being some random engineer's responsibility.

Pros: With changes in our maternity/family leave policies, a new flex day policy, and more authentic and transparent communication with employees, C3 AI is making strides to improve the employee experience! The people remain the best part of C3, so it is nice to see leadership put in more effort to retain them.

Cons: C3 AI has a culture of hard work, which unfortunately for many (not all) leads to heavy burnout. For those experiencing burnout, leaving is often identified as the only solution because legitimate time off to reset is difficult to come by. Even off-hours are still on-hours for many.

Pros: High salary Interesting work Great coworkers

Cons: No work from home. High pressure.
