Pros

- Cutting edge of computer vision/AI for driving, without biting off more than they can chew - Not trying to build a whole autonomous vehicle, instead trying to find a niche in the dashcam/safety space... thus capturing data that will be invaluable during the autonomous revolution. - Experienced leadership with a great track record of growing startups - Fun office (little stuff like happy hours and nerf battles and bigger stuff like good culture of comfortable co-working and communal problem solving)

Cons

- some hiring missteps led to a few bad eggs, who have since been weeded out. - international customers and contractors can mean some pretty long hours and time zone flexibility, but totally depending on your role - Not many PMs so many engineers have to self-start and be their own project/product manager (this can be a pro or a con depending on how you like to work)

Pros

Excellent AI technology that is proven to save drivers lives. Competitive pay, and a great HQ office space.

Cons

CEO is over involved in every single sales pursuit. The company has went through a minimum of 5 sales leaders in the last 4 years and this should have been a red flag. Despite the advanced technology, many competitors have caught up and have a wider breadth of complimentary product lines that Nauto does not. Ultimately, CEO and executive leadership tend to blame everyone, but themselves.
