Pros: It is a great software culture, awesome product, and awesome people!

Cons: Ops and “build at all costs” is still a bit present, but they’re getting better.

Pros: - Some teams are full of good and smart people who are doing their best. - Newer employees are well intentioned and hopeful. - The mission and tech used to be very cool.

Cons: - chaos. Absolute and utter chaos. Changes in vision, direction, teams, leadership - everything, leading to a large scale disillusionment with the potential future success of the business (my personal outlook on that is negative)- Every single employee is overworked and stressed, and this frequently makes people unkind to their colleagues, all stemming from unrealistic top-down demands- some of the most nonsensical layoffs I have ever encountered. Entire mission-critical teams gutted for seemingly no reason. Can’t help but feel like the goal is to instill fear- women and minorities are consistently disrespected and pushed out of the company. I imagine that they have more EEOC claims than the legal team can handle at the moment (because all the lawyers left)- all of the good employees are leaving as fast as they can (including senior leadership and people with 5+ years tenure).

Pros: * Top notch engineering team: best I've ever worked with * Fantastic transparency: nothing is hidden from employees * Exciting mission: this is the top of project I would be telling my kids or grandkids about. Working on the forefront of autonomous technology and applying it to a good cause. * Constantly trying to improve processes to grow with the company * Advocacy system is an interesting alternative to traditional management * Employees are empowered to make important decisions

Cons: * You have to have self-management skills to succeed here. * You need to make your case to get wider team prioritization on problems most important to you. * Cash compensation is decent, but you can make more money elsewhere.
