Thanks for taking the time to share this! We're glad your first year at Bear has been a good one and that the work and the technology behind it have stood out. Building robots is fun, but it's even better when the people building them enjoy showing up each day. We'll take "no detractors" as a win, but we're not hibernating just yet. We'll keep looking for ways to make Bear an even better place to grow, build, and do meaningful work.

First, we want to thank you for sticking with Bear for more than three years and for taking the time to leave such thoughtful feedback! We're glad the autonomy and benefits stood out. We also hear your point about shifting priorities and not always having the support or resources needed to execute. That's a real challenge for growing companies, but it doesn't make it any less frustrating when you're the one trying to deliver. Your advice about listening to what's happening on the ground resonates. The people closest to the work usually spot what's working—and what isn't—before anyone else. As we grow, we're working to put more structure around how priorities are set and communicated so teams have a clearer direction and can spend less time changing course. Thanks for helping us keep our paws pointed in the right direction. Feedback like this helps us build a stronger Bear.

Pros

• Some smart and talented individual contributors who genuinely care about their work. • Interesting product concept in a growing industry. • Remote work structure provides flexibility for some roles.

Cons

• Poor leadership culture: Managers often lack empathy and transparency. Decisions are top-down with little room for feedback or collaboration. • HR is not a safe space: Concerns brought in confidence were later used against employees, which creates a culture of fear and retaliation. • Morale is low: Many employees stay because of financial need, not because they believe in the mission or feel supported. • Retaliation exists: Some supervisors retaliate against employees who raise issues or challenge inconsistencies. • Not mental health–friendly: High stress, lack of psychological safety, and no genuine support from leadership or HR. • Favoritism and inconsistency: Policies and standards are not enforced equally across teams.
