Pros

Form is uniquely positioned to truly have a world changing impact. We have a quickly growing incredible team that is more than capable of achieving our mission. Our leadership has continually led us through aggressive but successful milestones and I feel they will continue to do so.

Cons

We are moving very quickly and it can be very exhausting to keep up. There are frequently changes to the plan of record but time and time again those painful changes have proven to be the right decision. Nonetheless it leads to very intense bursts of work for various teams. Every new stage of the company we evolve into comes with many growing pains that typically manifest as slightly chaotic middle management coordination but always settles out. Again, it can be exhausting if you’re continually at the forefront of what Form is doing but it never lasts unreasonably long in my opinion.

Pros

Fast paced company trying to do something very challenging. Great place to learn and grow, but you must be self-driven and ok with rapidly changing dynamics.

Cons

Timelines are always too aggressive and never get hit. Demoralizing for the team.

Pros

Smart people passionate about green energy

Cons

1. Toxic management who expects you to work long hours and weekend while the pay is way below Bay Area normal 2. Most execs have very little experience in manufacturing or hardware development and only interested in saving their own job 3. People are leaving at an unprecedented rate, and management is unwilling to do anything because they know they can get away with it in this market 4. Managers will sent a company wide email saying the expectation is that we will work much longer hours to make this product work, and that those that don't are being "noticed"
