Worthless Stocks, Toxic Culture
Worthless Stocks, Toxic Culture
Access to partial Google perks. I cannot think of anything else.
Compensation: The stocks are worthless, so you only have base salary. The company's goal is not making revenue. It blows off every possibility of profitable business – L2&L3 and trucking – due to poor business decisions. It is working on L4 robotaxi only to satisfy someone's ego.
Work-life balance: The company implicitly expects you to work 100+ hours per week. You need to work on short-term projects all year with deadlines every 1-2 months. You will barely have a chance to sleep a week before each deadline.
Culture: Toxic. The company wants you to feel insecure so you work harder. And it's famous for really bad people managers.
Replace the current CEO and educate people managers to have normal human values.
