Don’t work here
San Diego is a great place to live.
The health insurance is ok.
No time off and expected that work is your life. Poor leadership and micro-managers Poor pay and work/life balance do not exist Offer options that you have to pay for with no clear path to a payback. Lots of fairy dust
Give back to your employees, you aren’t Elon Musk and the company mission and purpose is bigger than just ego.
It’s meaningful and people work here because they believe in the product and their own futures.
People that work at Shield have hope and believe in the management.
