Pros

The people i worked with were awesome! There was a sense family ties between my teammates.

Cons

Massive layoff even though we got a good round of funding. The company let go about half of its employees, regardless if they were super talented and brought value to the company. To be upfront, I did not get laid off, I decided to leave this company when I saw good people let-go. Stay away.

Pros

Strong people and culture. Genuinely good colleagues, a collaborative environment, and a place where talented people want to do good work. After many years here, the quality of the people is the thing I'd point to first. Real mission and real product. The work matters — building technology that has a tangible safety impact in the physical world. That gives the work a sense of purpose that's hard to find elsewhere.

Cons

Leadership and organizational clarity could be stronger. As the company has grown, clearer direction, more consistent decision-making, and steadier organizational structure would help people do their best work. Uncertainty. Periods of structural and strategic change can create a sense of instability that's tiring over time, even for people who are otherwise very committed to the company.
