50/50 good teams to bad teams
If you end up on the right team, you can learn a lot with good co-workers.
Decent pay, but they will underpay you at any chance they get. I was making $30k less a year than someone on my exact same team with the same level and experience.
Management has no idea what is realistic and will communicate impossible timelines to the VP level, knowing full well they can't hit those targets.
I have been on three teams within Rivian. Some teams are filled with some of the most friendly, helpful, and motivated people in CA, and some teams have people who are rude, isolating, and unmotivated.
The CEO is there for the vibes and paycheck. He has no experience and keeps trying to push dumb projects, which always get canceled (along with the hundreds of engineers he hired to work on them).
Company is bleeding cash fast and won't make it another few years.
Focus on selling cars and stop playing with hand puppets in the factory.
