Pros

Every person at this company makes huge contributions to the overall whole. In the case of engineering, every engineer owns large parts of the product. Contributions feel meaningful and self-driven.

Senior leadership are all experienced, inspiring, committed to employees' well-being, and of good moral fiber.

The company is experiencing exceptional and uncharacteristic success for a startup of its size and funding history.

The engineering team is close-knit, with a good balance of work, learning, and fun team activities. Some past activities include:

  • A group painting party
  • Trip to the San Francisco Symphony
  • A day out on the bay on a private boat
  • Board game nights, etc.

Also, your colleagues will encourage you to take care of yourself.

It's exciting to show up to the office every day!

Cons

Verkada is moving quickly and growing fast, so you should be comfortable going with the flow at times.

If you're an engineer that expects rigorous testing with near-complete code coverage, you're not always going to find that.
