Pros

Great place to work if you're looking for: - interesting technical challenges - smart and kind people - great compensation - supportive mid-level managers - meritocracy: if you're a great engineer, you will advance fast. the right structures are in place to reward your work and support your career growth - an above-average level of diversity & inclusion. gender ratios seem much better than at other tech companies

Cons

- uncertainties: the AV sector is quite risky and subject to regulatory risks, as we're seeing with Cruise right now - work-life balance can be a bit tough, since there are always pressing problems to solve. but if the work is exciting to you, this can also be a pro!
