Pros

Incredibly talented team, hand-picked from around the world for their skill and experience, integrated into a strong team, working on a truly exciting vision. The level of knowledge and expertise in the team is inspiring and challenges you to up your game. You learn and grow more here in six months than in years at a traditional automotive OEM. The product development approach is different to a traditional OEM, as is the way in which the whole team works together for the benefit of the product. You have significant responsibility in your role and can really influence and shape the product. Free breakfast, snacks, and drinks, and in-work social events, help with the Silicon Valley feel. Pay and stock options are competitive.

Cons

The nature of the products and the short development timeframe mean the hours can be long.

But when you're excited and fired up, the days fly by.

With a smaller team compared to a typical OEM, you need to cover a much larger set of responsibilities, which can be daunting.

However, you learn a diverse skill set very quickly.

Advice to Management

Protect the values which make Atieva unique and different to a typical auto OEM as the company grows.

Keep on the path we're on, and we'll deliver a world-class product.
