Pros

Cruise treats employees very well, they may not do my laundry but there's plenty of snacks, meals, social events, recognition, and of course the pay is competitive as well. Working on autonomous vehicles is challenging and there's a ton of work to do, but the software and performance is moving rapidly changing the day to day activity and always presenting with new challenges.

Cons

A rapidly growing company experiences growing pains with culture, leveling, and communication.

Pros

Cruise Automation moved very fast when I was there. I was lucky to see the team I was a part of expand from roughly a dozen individuals to 4-5 times the size by the time I left. The team was fun to work with. The work we did was impactful and it was good seeing progress on development on a day-to-day basis.

Cons

Although Cruise is a big player in this industry, most of the AVT ops team consisted of contractors. Contractors are treated poorly and looked down upon by many of the full-time staff. Rampant disrespect toward contracted team members was prevalent and it negatively affected team morale.
